Loaded Yogurt Bowl with Granola, Almond Butter, and Berries

Most days, I wake up and do not want to cook something for breakfast. I just want a filling, healthy breakfast idea in 5 minutes or less. It’s so easy to put together a yogurt bowl with granola, berries, nut butter, and honey, and it’s the perfect solution for a lazy morning breakfast!

Make this loaded yogurt and granola bowl for breakfast or a snack!

Why you’ll love this yogurt bowl

A yogurt bowl is a great way to have a nutritious breakfast that feels like you’re eating dessert! Greek yogurt is a great source of protein, nut butter is a source of healthy fats, and you’ll get micronutrients and antioxidants from berries.

What are some other great toppings for yogurt bowls?

  • Fruit: You can add just about any kind of fruit to a yogurt bowl. My go-to is always strawberries or blueberries, but feel free to play with what’s in season!
  • Nuts: A yogurt bowl needs some crunch, so whether you’re getting that from granola or a variety of nuts like almonds or pistachios, every yogurt bowl needs some texture.
  • Nut butters: Any kind of butter will do, or even sunflower butter for an allergen-friendly breakfast.
  • Dehydrated fruits: Goji berries, mulberries, or dehydrated wild blueberries are great toppings to add some texture and more sweetness to your bowl. I love shopping on Thrive Market for a variety of toppings to add to smoothie or yogurt bowls. (PS, you get 30% off your first box plus a free gift with my affiliate link)
  • Other toppings: Hemp hearts, flax seeds, coconut flakes, and chia seeds are all great to add more nutrients and texture to your yogurt bowl.

Dietary Restrictions and Substitutions for Yogurt Bowls

  • Yogurt: I prefer a plain 5% fat Greek yogurt for its creaminess, thickness, and texture (my favorite brand is Fage). But if you don’t like plain yogurt, you can use a vanilla or fruit blend. If you are vegan or need a dairy-free yogurt option, you can use an almond milk yogurt, coconut yogurt, or other plant-based yogurt option instead.
  • Nut butter: If you are allergic to nuts, use a seed butter instead, like Sunflower butter! I’m also a big fan of Oat Haus granola butter, which is an allergen-friendly alternative to nut butters.
  • Honey: If you are vegan, use agave nectar or maple syrup instead of honey. I like to buy mine from Thrive Market.
