# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent enough to feel like a treat, but packed with enough protein to actually keep you full until lunch.
  • Layering means every spoonful has a different texture—creamy, crunchy, tart, sweet—so you never get bored mid-bowl.
  • It's endlessly flexible; swap nuts, fruits, or toppings based on what you have or what the season offers.
02 -
  • Don't skip the step of properly mixing the cashew butter with yogurt—lumpy pockets of nut butter taste amazing but only if they're intentional, not accidental.
  • Layer while the granola is still in the container you bought it in; once it hits cold yogurt, it softens faster than you'd think, so timing matters if you want maximum crunch.
03 -
  • Buy the best cashew butter you can find; cheap versions often have added oils that change the taste and texture.
  • Don't assemble these more than an hour before eating if you want granola crunch; it softens faster than you'd expect once it meets cold yogurt and fruit juice.
