Yogurt Bowl with Winter Berries (Print Version)

Creamy probiotic yogurt topped with mixed winter berries and a homemade spiced oat-nut crunch for a warming breakfast.

# What You'll Need:

→ Yogurt Base

01 - 2 cups plain probiotic yogurt, Greek or regular style
02 - 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup, optional
03 - ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, optional

→ Winter Berries

04 - 1 cup mixed fresh or frozen winter berries including blueberries, blackberries, cranberries, and pomegranate seeds

→ Spiced Crunch

05 - ½ cup rolled oats, certified gluten-free if needed
06 - ¼ cup chopped mixed nuts such as walnuts, pecans, or almonds
07 - 2 tablespoons sunflower or pumpkin seeds
08 - 1 tablespoon coconut flakes
09 - 1½ tablespoons maple syrup or honey
10 - 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
11 - ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
12 - ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
13 - ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
14 - Pinch of sea salt

# How to Make:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine oats, nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Drizzle with melted coconut oil and maple syrup, then stir thoroughly until all components are evenly coated. Transfer mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and fragrant. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely to achieve desired crispness.
02 - Divide yogurt equally between serving bowls, approximately 1 cup per bowl. If using, gently swirl honey and vanilla extract into the yogurt to distribute flavor throughout.
03 - Distribute half of the mixed berries over each bowl. Add a generous handful of cooled spiced crunch mixture to each serving, reserving extra for additional topping if desired.
04 - Serve immediately while the spiced crunch maintains its textural contrast with the creamy yogurt. Offer additional spiced crunch on the side for those preferring extra crunch.
