Description

A quick and easy healthy breakfast bowl combining creamy Greek yogurt, fresh berries, and crunchy almonds for a satisfying and nutritious start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt
½ cup (3.5 oz / 75 g) mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries; fresh or frozen)
2 tbsp (0.5 oz / 14 g) almonds (raw or roasted)
1 tsp (0.17 fl oz / 5 ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
1 tsp (0.18 oz / 5 g) chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional)
¼ tsp (0.02 fl oz / 1 ml) vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

If toasting almonds, heat a dry skillet over medium heat, add almonds, and toast for 2-3 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool. Skip if using pre-roasted nuts.
In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt with vanilla extract and honey or maple syrup if using. Stir gently until smooth and slightly sweetened.
Fold in mixed berries. If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw for a few minutes to avoid chilling the yogurt too much.
Sprinkle toasted almonds over the top. Add chia or flaxseeds if desired.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed by drizzling a little extra honey. Optionally, add a pinch of cinnamon for warmth.
Serve immediately for best texture, or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours if prepping ahead.

Notes

Toast almonds carefully to avoid burning. Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creaminess. Frozen berries should be thawed slightly before use. Adjust sweetness to taste. Can substitute almonds with walnuts or pecans. For vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
