# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like dessert but sneaks in serious protein and healthy fats to keep you satisfied all morning.
  • You can layer it the night before and grab it on your way out, making busy mornings feel a little less chaotic.
02 -
  • If your cashew butter is too thick, warm it for a few seconds in the microwave so it stirs into the yogurt without clumping.
  • Assemble just before eating if you want the granola to stay crispy. Layering it ahead softens the crunch, which some people love and others don't.
03 -
  • Warm your cashew butter slightly before mixing it makes blending smoother and prevents those stubborn clumps that ruin the texture.
  • Save a few whole berries and a cluster of granola for the very top. The visual contrast makes it feel like a cafe treat, even if you're eating it in your pajamas.
