Ingredients
- Greek yogurt (250g): Creamy and rich, Greek yogurt forms the base of this trifle.
- Honey (2 tablespoons): To sweeten the yogurt naturally.
- Mixed berries (200g, fresh or frozen): Adds sweetness and tartness to the layers.
- Granola (100g): Provides crunch and texture to the dish.
- Chia seeds (1 tablespoon): For extra fiber and nutrients.
- Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon): Adds flavor and complements the sweetness of the fruit.
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the yogurt
- In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with honey and vanilla extract until well combined.
- This adds a subtle sweetness to balance the tanginess of the yogurt.
Step 2: Prepare the fruit
- If using fresh berries, wash and dry them.
- If using frozen berries, let them thaw slightly or stew them for a few minutes with a bit of water and honey to soften.
Step 3: Layer the trifle
- In your serving glasses or bowls, spoon a layer of the sweetened yogurt into the bottom.
- Add a handful of mixed berries on top.
- Sprinkle a layer of granola, followed by a few chia seeds for added texture and nutrition.
- Repeat the layers until the glass is full, finishing with a topping of berries and granola for a beautiful presentation.
Step 4: Serve
- Serve immediately for the best crunch, or let it sit for a few minutes if you prefer the granola to soften slightly.
- Enjoy your breakfast trifle with a cup of coffee or tea for a complete, satisfying start to the day.
