Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Base
- 1 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly and slice them into bite-sized pieces to ensure even distribution in the yogurt mixture.
- Mix Yogurt and Chia Seeds: In a medium bowl, combine the plain full-fat Greek yogurt and chia seeds. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb moisture and thicken the yogurt base.
- Add Sweeteners and Flavor: Stir in the honey or maple syrup along with the vanilla extract to impart a natural sweetness and a pleasant aroma to the yogurt mixture.
- Combine with Strawberries: Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the yogurt mixture until they are evenly incorporated without crushing the berries, maintaining their fresh texture.
- Chill Before Serving: Transfer the prepared mixture into serving bowls or containers. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill properly before serving.
Notes
- For a vegan option, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use maple syrup instead of honey.
- Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less honey or maple syrup.
- This recipe can be prepared the night before for a convenient grab-and-go breakfast.
- Feel free to add toppings such as sliced almonds, granola, or shredded coconut for extra texture.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
