Yogurt and Berries Granola Cups
Jump To Recipe
For me granola is something you have on its own…that’s why I like making it chunky…with none of that half-way-through-baking stirring business. Once I’ve gone through most of those delicious sweet chunks of granola, there’s always some loose non-chunky bits left at the bottom of the jar. That would all get used up by topping my smoothie bowls or morning bowl of oatmeal.
Now….many people I know have their granola with yogurt and berries….which as explained above I would not enjoy such a treat. That’s why when I first created the Acai Granola Cups recipe (you can also call it an upside down Acai bowl) I made it filled with an acai smoothie. But since most of you do enjoy your granola with yogurt, and out of the kindness of my heart, I decided to post the recipe with the yogurt variation. So here it goes…
Let me know in the comments below if you try to make this recipe. Also share how you best enjoy your granola.

Ingredients:
Granola Cups:
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1/4 cup raw almonds, chopped
- 2 tbsp shredded coconut
- 1 tbsp cocoa nibs (optional)
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 3 tbsp almond butter (or peanut butter)
- 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
Filling:
- Greek yogurt
- honey
- vanilla
- berries
Instructions:
To make the granola cups:
- Grease the wells in the muffin tray very well with coconut oil or cooking spray.
- To make the granola cups, in a medium bowl mix together the oats, almonds, coconut, and nibs. In a small saucepan over low heat, mix the oil, almond butter, honey and vanilla until all melted and smooth.
- Add the wet mix to the oat mixture, and mix well. If you feel the mixture is too dry add a little bit more oil or honey.
- Divide the mix equally into the wells to make 8 cups. Press firmly down against the bottom and up the sides to make a cup shape. Place the pan in the fridge until the granola is firm, about 45mins to an hour.
- Pre-heat the oven to 350F or 160C. Take the muffin tray out of the fridge and place on baking sheet. Bake in the oven for approximately 20-25 mins until golden in color and feels firm. Cool completely before popping out of the pan.
To assemble the cups:
- When you plan to eat the granola cups, mix a little of honey with the yogurt to the desired sweetness (not too much as the granola cups are already sweet) and add vanilla if you wish. Spoon about 3 tablespoons into each cup, and top with berries.
- Eat as soon as possible as the granola will get soggy.
