# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It feels like dessert for breakfast but actually fuels your body with protein and probiotics.
  • The whole thing comes together in ten minutes, which means you're not scrambling when you're already running late.
  • Those first few bites have this perfect textural contrast that keeps things interesting from start to finish.
02 -
  • The whipping time actually matters—I once skipped it thinking it wouldn't make a difference, and the result was heavy and dense instead of fluffy and cloud-like.
  • Granola goes on last, literally in the bowl seconds before you eat it, because it's the enemy of crunch and milk-adjacent liquids are always plotting against it.
03 -
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt if you can find it—the difference in mouthfeel and how it whips is genuinely noticeable and worth seeking out.
  • Don't whip your yogurt ahead of time expecting it to stay fluffy; it settles back down and loses that light texture, so whip it right before you eat it.
