Ingredients

  • 180–200 g natural, unsweetened yogurt (goat’s milk, Greek, or regular natural yogurt)
  • 4–6 tablespoons prepared fresh fruit (berries, diced peaches, pears, apricots, cherries with stones removed, or sliced banana)
  • 2–3 tablespoons creamy almond butter (or preferred nut butter)
  • 2 teaspoons flaked almonds (optional)
  • 1–2 tablespoons milled flaxseeds (optional)
  • 1–2 tablespoons desiccated coconut (optional)
  • 1–2 tablespoons toasted oats or low-sugar granola (optional)
  • 1–2 tablespoons barley flakes (optional)
  • 1 pinch cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)
  • 1–2 teaspoons honey, date syrup, or maple syrup for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Divide half of the yogurt evenly between two clear serving glasses or bowls.
  2. Spoon half of the prepared fruit over the yogurt layer, arranging neatly.
  3. Drizzle half of the almond butter over the fruit.
  4. Add the remaining yogurt on top and smooth gently.
  5. Finish with the remaining fruit.
  6. Sprinkle flaked almonds over the top.
  7. If using optional extras, stir seeds, coconut, or spices into the yogurt before layering. Add oats, barley flakes, or granola as a separate layer between yogurt and fruit. Drizzle sweetener just before serving.
  8. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Best enjoyed fresh for optimal texture.
  • If preparing ahead, assemble up to 4–6 hours in advance and refrigerate covered.
  • Add crunchy toppings just before serving to prevent sogginess.
  • Use Greek yogurt for a thicker, higher-protein option.
  • Thaw and drain frozen fruit before layering to avoid excess moisture.
  • Substitute plant-based yogurt and maple or date syrup for a vegan version.
