Notes
- Granola: The video mentions homemade granola, but feel free to use your favorite store-bought kind!
- Sweetness: Adjust the amount of honey or swap for maple syrup or another sweetener based on your preference and the sweetness of your fruit/yogurt.
- Fruit: While strawberries are shown, you can easily substitute with other berries (blueberries, raspberries) or fruits like peaches or mango.
- Make Ahead: You can prep the components (chop fruit, mix yogurt) ahead of time, but assemble just before serving to prevent the granola from getting soggy.
- Quantity: These amounts are estimates for one serving as shown in the video. Adjust quantities based on the size of your serving glass and your preference for each layer.
