Ingredients
Base
- ½ cup granola (plus more for topping)
- 1 cup yogurt of choice
Fruit
- ½ cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
- ¾ cup fresh strawberries, sliced or chopped
Topping
- ¼ cup granola (smaller pieces work better)
Instructions
- Prepare the muffin pan: Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners or use a 12-cup silicone baking pan to prevent sticking and ease removal of the frozen bites.
- Add granola base: Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of granola into the bottom of each cup to create a crunchy base layer. Set the pan aside.
- Mix yogurt and strawberries: In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of yogurt with ½ cup of diced strawberries. Use a pastry cutter or fork to mash the fruit into the yogurt, leaving some chunks for texture. Stir and fold the mixture well using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
- Fill the cups: Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of the strawberry yogurt mixture into each muffin cup, making sure the layer is even. Gently tap the pan to smooth the surface.
- Add strawberry topping: Press about 1 tablespoon of sliced or chopped strawberries into the top of each filled cup, creating a fresh, fruity topping.
- Sprinkle granola topping: Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of granola over the strawberries in each cup to add crunch and flavor on top.
- Freeze until firm: Place the pan into the freezer and chill for 2 to 4 hours, or until the bites are fully firm and frozen.
- Serve: Carefully pop out each frozen yogurt bite from the pan. Let them thaw for a few minutes before enjoying to soften slightly for the best texture.

Notes
- You can use any type of yogurt—Greek, flavored, or dairy-free—to customize the flavor and texture.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best taste; frozen strawberries could add extra moisture and affect texture.
- If you prefer a sweeter bite, add a little honey or sweetener to the yogurt mixture before freezing.
- Smaller granola pieces work better on top to avoid overpowering the bites.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
