Ingredients

Here’s what I used to make these granola bowls:

Crunchy granola – I love making homemade granola because you get way more bang for your buck than anything you’ll find at the grocery store. I made a variation of my maple tahini nut free granola, but I also understand not always having time to make it, so store bought is also fine.
Fresh fruit – I used clementine orange segments, pears, and pomegranate seeds because they’re in season right now and add lots of color, but any seasonal fruit is great. You can also use thawed frozen fruit.
Dairy free yogurt – I used Cocojune’s pineapple yuzu protein yogurt for extra protein and a hint of extra flavor, but you can really use anything.
Toppings – hemp seeds, nuts, shredded coconut, etc.

Assemble. Spread the yogurt in the bottom of the bowl. Top with granola, fruit, a sprinkle of hemp seeds or any other toppings you’d like. Enjoy!

Helpful Tips

If using homemade granola, make it ahead of time so it has time to crisp up once it cools. Try my 5 ingredient peanut butter granola, maple tahini nut free granola, or cinnamon granola with vanilla.

Quick Tip: To make it an even more filling option, use a protein yogurt (for dairy free, Cocojune has a few flavors) or greek yogurt if not dairy free.

Storage

Store the granola, fresh fruit, and yogurt in a separate airtight container. Assemble just before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

What goes in a granola bowl?

A granola bowl is really a blank canvas as to what you put in it. Typically it’ll have contrasting textures like creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, fresh or dried fruit, and some type of crunchy topping of nuts or seeds, maybe a drizzle of honey. You can create many variations each time by changing up the type of ingredients.
