This Yogurt Bowl is perfect when you need a filling, healthy ☀️ breakfast idea in 5 minutes flat. I am definitely a yogurt girl so I could eat this for breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner all day, every day! Yogurt was a staple growing up in the Balkans and something we enjoy often. I am a huge lover of plain yogurt and like to naturally sweeten it with 🍯 honey, nut/seed butter and 🫐 berries. If you know me, you know this on rotation in my household and I hope it be in yours as well.

Why You’ll Love Yogurt Bowl

A Yogurt Bowl is a great way to pack in a lot of nutrients quickly, and deliciously. You’ll get protein from the yogurt, fiber from the seeds, healthy fats from the nuts and seeds and a healthy kick of antioxidants and vitamins from the fresh 🍓 berries. This bowl not only tastes delicious it 👀 LOOKS delicious: with beautiful colors, a swirl of nut butter and sprinkle of seeds, it’s a feast for all your senses !

How to Prepare Yogurt Bowl

🥣 First, add 1 cup of plain yogurt to a bowl.

🥄 Now, use a spoon to swirl in 1 tablespoon of your favorite nut or seed butter.

🍯 Drizzle with honey or agave.

🫐🍓 Then sprinkle fresh mixed berries on top.

🌻 Finally sprinkle any seeds you enjoy, such as hemp hearts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds or chia.

😋 Enjoy!

Nonna’s Tip 🥜

If you’re allergic to nuts, please use seed butter for this recipe. Additionally, any toppings will work so get creative !

Variations and Substitutions for Yogurt Bowl

  1. You can make this plant-based and dairy-free if you use your favorite non-dairy yogurt and agave or 🍁 maple syrup instead of honey.
  2. Feel free to use any yogurt you love. If you don’t like plain yogurt you can find a good quality vanilla yogurt and use that as well but the 🍯 honey will most likely not be needed as vanilla yogurt is usually sweet enough as is.
  3. Use whatever fruits you love: kiwi, pineapple, 🥭 mango, pomegranate seeds, banana slices or peaches would all be delicious.
  4. Use a variety of toppings such as granola, a sprinkle of cinnamon or shredded 🥥 coconut.

Common Questions

Feel free to use whatever yogurt you enjoy. I like Balkan-style, but you could use Greek or Skyr as well.

Yes, simply use your favorite non-dairy yogurt and agave instead of honey.

Yes, you certainly can. I would suggest tasting it before adding the honey or agave since flavored yogurts tend to be sweet on their own.

You can have fun with whatever fruits you enjoy! Kiwi, mango, pineapple, pomegranate seeds, banana slices or melon would be delicious.

Try any nuts you love (walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, peanuts), granola, oats, shredded coconut, or a sprinkle of cinnamon would work here.
