# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes about as long as brewing coffee but feels like you've actually taken time for yourself.
  • The contrast between creamy yogurt, juicy fruit, and crunchy granola never gets old, no matter how many times you make it.
  • High in protein without tasting like you're being virtuous about breakfast.
02 -
  • Don't whip the yogurt more than a couple of minutes or it breaks down and becomes grainy instead of fluffy—I learned this the hard way on my third attempt.
  • Add your granola last, right before eating, or it will soften and lose that satisfying crunch that's honestly half the appeal.
03 -
  • Room temperature yogurt whips faster and fluffier than cold yogurt straight from the fridge—take it out five minutes before you need it.
  • The moment the granola hits warm yogurt, it starts to soften, so if you love crunch, add it right before the first spoonful and maybe refresh it halfway through.
