Notes

Tips, Tricks & Storage

Adjust Thickness with Ice or Liquid
If your mixture is too thin, add more frozen fruit or ice. If it's too thick, splash in extra milk until it smooths out.
Chill Ahead
 Keep your yogurt, milk, and fruit cold. A cooler base helps everything blend up smoothly and keeps the bowl from warming too quickly.
Layer Toppings Last
Add crunchy toppings (nuts, seeds, granola) only just before eating to preserve their crispness. *Pro Tip* You can also make the base in advance, freeze it, and add the toppings later if you are using this for a quick breakfast on the go during the week.
Texture
 Mix in chia seeds, oats, or nut butter to dial up the texture or protein content.
Storage
Make the base and toppings separately. Store the blended base in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to a day. Keep toppings dry and in sealed containers. Don't assemble too early, or the crunch will soften.

Substitutions & Variations

Swap berries for mango, pineapple, or banana; use coconut milk or almond yogurt; switch granola for toasted oats or crushed nuts — whatever you have in your kitchen or feels good in the moment. Just follow your taste and have fun with it!
