Ingredients
Granola Cups
- 2 cups granola
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
Filling and Topping
- 2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the muffin pan: Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease the pan to prevent sticking.
- Mix granola base: In a bowl, combine the granola with the melted coconut oil and honey or maple syrup until the granola is evenly coated with the mixture.
- Form granola cups: Press the granola mixture firmly into the bottoms and up the sides of each muffin cup, creating small cup shapes suitable for holding yogurt.
- Freeze granola cups: Place the muffin pan in the freezer for 20 minutes to allow the granola cups to set and become firm.
- Fill with yogurt: Remove the granola cups from the freezer and fill each cup with vanilla Greek yogurt evenly.
- Add toppings: Top each filled granola cup with a handful of mixed berries and sprinkle with chia seeds if using.
- Freeze to set: Return the filled and topped granola cups to the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours to solidify fully.
- Serve: Before serving, let the frozen yogurt granola cups sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to slightly soften for easier eating.
Notes
- Store finished granola cups in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks for best freshness.
- For variety, add sliced bananas, kiwi, or mango as alternative fruit toppings.
- Use certified gluten-free granola if gluten sensitivity or dietary restrictions are a concern.
