Watch how to make these Granola & Yogurt Bowls in 4 different ways!
Personally, I believe that breakfast should be fun, delicious, and insanely nutritious. It’s your kickstart for the day! And, I mean, you guys know me. I’m a breakfast FANATIC.
Every night when I go to bed, I’m already excited for breakfast in the morning. It is my absolute favorite! On the weekends I make a breakfast/brunch treat like these Pecan Pie Pancakes, Gingerbread French Toast, or maybe even Maple Pecan Doughnuts. On weekdays, however, I quickly throw together these Granola & Yogurt Bowls. Not only are they delicious, but they provide vitamins, calcium, protein, healthy carbs, and healthy fats that our bodies desperately need each and every day. Talk about a balanced and delicious breakfast!
Here are 4 ways to create these Granola & Yogurt Bowls!
1.) Raspberry Chocolate Yogurt Bowl
Yogurt + Granola + Raspberries + Chocolate Syrup.
2.) Tropical Yogurt Bowl
Yogurt + Granola + Cantaloupe + Goji Berries + Coconut Shavings.
3.) Triple Berry Yogurt Bowl
Yogurt + Granola + Raspberries + Blackberries + Strawberries.
4.) Peanut Butter & Jelly Yogurt Bowl
Yogurt + Granola + Peanut Butter + Jelly + Strawberries.
Here’s a tip that I’ve recently learned about creating a balanced breakfast bowl (or really any healthy meal): Put as much colorful fruit in there as possible, even if that means using less of each item. Instead of one serving of one type of fruit and one type of nut, create your breakfast bowl with lots of different types of colorful fruit and nuts/seeds! Some of the BEST Granola & Yogurt Bowl additions are:
- Richly colored fruit, such as berries, oranges, cantaloupe, pomegranate, goji berries, kiwi, papaya, watermelon, and pineapple.
- Nuts/seeds, such as pumpkin seeds, walnuts, almonds, and unsalted pistachios.
- Plain greek yogurt, organic milk, soy milk, or almond milk.
- Organic granola, cereal, or oats (or make your own Homemade Granola).
And so much more! You can get as creative as you wish with these Granola & Yogurt Bowls 🙂 And feel free to make them totally Inta worthy! I mean….it’s like food art. It IS food art. Ya with me? That’s what I attempt to do, anyway.

Delicious and simple these are always a fav although we haven’t had them much in awhile until recently when I got more granola (a couple years ago we started using muesli a lot more) and we found a yogurt my oldest could have. I love all the flavors and textures you have here, not to mention they are pretty!!
Christine McMichael replied:
Thanks, Sarah! Love muesli, too!
