✏️Ingredient notes
These ingredients are just our suggestions. Feel free to swap out anything with your favorite ingredients!
- Your favorite berries - Personally, we love fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries for this.
- The best granola - We think our homemade granola is the best, but you can also use your favorite brand of granola!
- Nuts & seeds - We are always looking for ways to add more nutrients and healthy fats to our bowls. That's why you'll almond always find nuts like almonds and pecans, hemp seeds, and pumpkin seeds in our yogurt granola bowls. Did you know that 1 serving of hemp hearts has 10 grams of protein? Amazing!
- Sweetener of choice - We like to add a sweet flavor to our plain greek yogurt with a sugar free maple syrup replacement, so we don't end up adding unnecessary sugars to the meal. You can start with any base of yogurt you prefer, like vanilla yogurt.
- Nut butter - Add a scoop of peanut butter, almond butter, or any of your favorite nut butters.
- Chocolate - We love this sugar free dark chocolate. Use chocolate chips, or melt them with a little bit of coconut oil for easy drizzling.
- Coconut flakes - We generally opt for unsweetened coconut flakes.
🍌More topping ideas
As we mentioned, the sky is the limit here, so feel free to add whatever you like!
- Add more healthy fats, fiber, or nutrients with chia seeds, flax seeds, cacao nibs, sunflower seeds, or sunflower seed butter.
- Sprinkle on some ground cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom for a little more flavor!
- Add any type of fruit. Go seasonal with pomegranate seeds, or super high nutrient with goji berries! Add some sweetness with banana, mango, or pineapple. Apples, cherries, kiwi, and citrus are also wonderful additions, especially seasonally!
📖Instructions
Start with a base of greek yogurt. If the yogurt you're using is unsweetened, you may want to mix in some sweetener at this point.
In a small bowl, add the base of yogurt, followed by granola, and nuts.
Add berries, then drizzle chocolate, peanut butter, and maple syrup (or substitute) to taste.
Top with hemp hearts, pepitas, coconut flakes, more berries, chocolate, peanut butter, and sweetener to taste.
Enjoy!
✨Variations
Here are some tips for making these yogurt bowls fit for various diet types!
- Dairy free or vegan - We love a good coconut yogurt for a dairy free or vegan substitute for regular
- Paleo - This recipe can easily be made paleo friendly. Sweeten to taste with stevia, coconut sugar, a drizzle of honey, pure maple syrup, or agave. You'd also want to make sure to use your favorite dairy free yogurt, and paleo approved granola.
- Low carb yogurt bowl - If you're looking for less sugar and carbs, make sure to use low sugar fruits like fresh blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries. Our keto granola recipe is essential for the topping! Add no sugar added peanut butter or other nut butters, sugar free chocolate chips, and make sure to use a low carb yogurt. Two Good Yogurt makes delicious low sugar vanilla greek yogurt, among other flavors like lemon, strawberry, peach, pumpkin, and more. It's definitely our top choice for keto yogurt, since it's sweetened with stevia.
