๐โโ๏ธFrequently Asked Questions
Yogurt granola bowls can be a healthy option, depending on the ingredients used and portion size. Yogurt is a good source of protein, calcium, and probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. Granola, on the other hand, can be high in added sugars and calories, so it's important to choose a low-sugar, whole-grain option.
Absolutely, to make yogurt granola bowls gluten free, simply substitute your favorite brand of gluten free granola for the wheat based granola.
If you are pre-making yogurt bowls, it's best to keep the ingredients separate until you are ready to eat. This will help prevent the granola from becoming soggy and the fruit from oxidizing.
You can store the yogurt in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. The granola and fruit can be stored separately in airtight containers at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
When you are ready to enjoy your granola yogurt bowl, simply assemble the ingredients by layering the yogurt, granola, and fruit in a bowl or jar. This will help maintain the texture and freshness of each component.
