  • 1 large banana, cut into slices
  • 1-2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 large banana
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or hemp hearts

Dark Chocolate Cherry Yogurt Bowl

  • 2 tablespoons dark cocao powder (I used Hershey's Special Dark)
  • 1 1/2-2 cups frozen dark cherries
  • 4 tablespoons hemp hearts
  • Mini chocolate chips for garnish
  • Whipped cream, optional

Berry Cheesecake Yogurt Bowl

  • 2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons Instant Jell-O Cheesecake Pudding Mix
  • 1 1/2-2 cup frozen mixed berries (use a raspberry mix to increase fiber)
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Orange Pistachio Yogurt Bowl

  • 2 cups vanilla or unflavored Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup shelled pistachios, chopped into smaller pieces
  • 2 mandarin oranges, segmented or chopped into small pieces
  • Drizzle of honey, optional

Instructions

Apple Pie with Pecans

  • Dice apples into small cubes. Combine apples and avocado oil or 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan on medium-high heat. Cook until apples are softened and tender, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add cinnamon and maple syrup to the apples and stir. Divide apple cinnamon mixture over two bowls of yogurt. Add chopped pecans. Enjoy!

Brown Sugar Banana with Pecans

  • Divide yogurt into two bowls. Top with banana slices, brown sugar and chopped pecans.

Pumpkin Spice with Bananas

  • Add pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice and yogurt to a large bowl. Whisk together until smooth and well-combined. Divide into two separate bowls. Top with chopped walnuts, banana slices, hemp hearts, and maple syrup.

Dark Chocolate Cherry Yogurt Bowl

  • Combine yogurt and cacao powder into a bowl. Whisk together until well-combined. Divide into two bowls and top with frozen or thawed dark cherries, mini chocolate chips, hemp hearts and whipped cream (optional).

Berry Cheesecake Yogurt Bowl

  • Add yogurt and Instant Jell-O pudding mix to a bowl. Whisk together until smooth and well-combined. Divide into two bowls or containers and top with chopped walnuts and frozen (or thawed) mixed berries.

Orange Pistachio Yogurt Bowl

  • Add one cup of yogurt to each bowl. Peel and segment the mandarin oranges and add to each bowl. Top with crushed, shelled pistachios and a drizzle of honey.

Notes

  • To store: all yogurt bowls can be prepped in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. I love to add frozen fruit because it adds some juice and flavor as it thaws. If topping with banana, it's best to add slices on when ready to consume (the day of) to prevent browning.
  • For a dairy-free yogurt bowl, choose a higher protein plant-based yogurt like Kite Hill Greek-Style.
  • The Instant Jell-O cheesecake pudding mix is not gluten-free. However, other pudding mixes (like vanilla) are.
