# Expert Pointers:

01 -
  • It feels indulgent but keeps you full for hours without the sugar crash.
  • You can prep the layers the night before and grab it straight from the fridge.
  • Every spoonful gives you creamy, crunchy, and fruity all at once.
  • It works just as well for a midday snack or a light dessert.
02 -
  • Cashew butter can be thick and stubborn, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes or microwave it for ten seconds to make mixing easier.
  • If you layer this the night before, keep the granola separate and add it right before eating or it turns soggy.
  • Greek yogurt brands vary wildly in thickness, if yours is runny the layers won't hold as well.
03 -
  • Warm your cashew butter jar in a bowl of hot water for a minute, it'll stir into the yogurt like a dream.
  • Freeze your berries for ten minutes before layering if you want an almost ice cream like texture.
  • Taste your yogurt before you start, some brands are tangier and might need a touch more sweetener.
