Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: Greek
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1 cup granola
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of Greek yogurt, 1 cup of mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries), 1 banana, sliced, 1 cup of granola, and 2 tablespoons of honey.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the 2 cups of Greek yogurt. This will serve as the creamy base for your fruit salad.
- Next, gently fold in the 1 cup of mixed berries into the Greek yogurt. Be careful not to mash the berries; you want to keep them whole for texture and presentation.
- Add the sliced banana to the bowl. You can adjust the amount of banana to your liking, but one medium banana should provide a nice balance of flavor and sweetness.
- Drizzle the 2 tablespoons of honey over the mixture. This will add a natural sweetness and enhance the flavors of the yogurt and fruit.
- Using a spatula or a large spoon, gently mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined. Be mindful to keep the fruit intact as you mix.
- Once everything is combined, take a serving bowl or individual cups and spoon the Greek yogurt fruit salad into them. You can layer the mixture or simply serve it in a more casual style.
- Sprinkle the 1 cup of granola on top of each serving just before serving to maintain its crunchiness. This adds a delightful texture contrast to the creamy yogurt and soft fruit.
- Optionally, you can garnish with a few extra berries or a drizzle of honey on top for added visual appeal.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Greek yogurt fruit salad as a healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert!
Tips
- Choose Fresh Ingredients: Always use the freshest berries and ripe bananas for the most vibrant flavor and best texture.
- Yogurt Selection: Opt for full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer, creamier base that provides more satisfying mouthfeel.
- Granola Crunch Hack: Add granola just before serving to maintain its crispy texture and prevent sogginess.
- Honey Drizzling Technique: Drizzle honey in a thin stream for even distribution and beautiful presentation.
- Customization is Key: Feel free to experiment with different fruits, nuts, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon to make the recipe your own.
- Chilling Tip: For an extra refreshing experience, chill all ingredients before mixing and serve immediately after preparation.
- Make-Ahead Option: You can prepare the yogurt and fruit mixture in advance, but add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.
