Preparation Method

Initial Setup

Begin by placing paper liners in a standard muffin tin. This preparation step ensures easy removal once frozen.

First Layer

Add one teaspoon of granola to each liner, creating a thin but solid foundation. Avoid overfilling as excessive granola becomes too hard when frozen.

Prepare Filling

Combine chopped fresh strawberries with vanilla yogurt, leaving some fruit pieces for texture. Mix until well combined but not completely smooth.

Final Assembly

Distribute the strawberry yogurt mixture evenly among the prepared cups. Top each with a fresh strawberry slice and optional granola garnish.

This recipe evolved through testing to find the ideal ratio of ingredients. The current version offers perfect texture and flavor balance in every bite.

Serving Suggestions

Enjoy these bites straight from the freezer as a cooling snack, pack in lunch boxes, or serve as a light dessert garnished with fresh berries. They work equally well for breakfast or afternoon treats.

Variations

Experiment with different berries, yogurt flavors, or granola varieties. Add honey for extra sweetness or incorporate chocolate chips for dessert versions. The basic recipe adapts well to many flavor combinations.

Storage Guidelines

Once completely frozen, transfer to freezer bags for space-efficient storage. Properly stored, they maintain quality for up to one month. For packed lunches, wrap individually in foil.
