Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla based on preference)

1 large apple, peeled, cored, and diced into small cubes

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust quantity to taste)

1/2 cup granola (select your favorite type for added flavor)

1/3 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (substitute with almond flour for a gluten-free option)

3 tablespoons brown sugar (or coconut sugar for a lighter alternative)

A pinch of salt

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil for a dairy-free version)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apple Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the diced apple with 1 tablespoon of honey (or maple syrup) and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix thoroughly to coat all the apple pieces, then let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes. This resting time allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

    Make the Crumble Topping: In another mixing bowl, combine the granola, rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Drizzle in the melted butter (or coconut oil) and mix until you achieve a crumbly texture with all the ingredients well incorporated. Set this mixture aside for later use.

      Combine Yogurt and Sweetener: In a separate large mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt and the remaining honey (or maple syrup). Stir with a whisk or spatula until the yogurt is smooth, creamy, and evenly sweetened.

        Layer the Yogurt Bites: Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or lightly spray it with cooking oil. Using a tablespoon, scoop the yogurt mixture into each muffin cup, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Next, add a layer of the prepared apple mixture, pressing it down gently to secure it. Finish each cup by generously topping with the crumble mixture.

          Freeze: Place the filled muffin tin into the freezer, allowing the yogurt bites to freeze for about 4-6 hours, or until they are completely solid and firm to the touch.

            Serve: Once frozen, carefully pop the yogurt bites out of the muffin tin. Serve immediately for a refreshing treat, or store them in an airtight container in the freezer. They can last up to a month for you to enjoy at your leisure.

              Prep Time, Total Time, Servings: 15 minutes | 6 hours | Approximately 12 servings (about 2 bites per serving)

                - Presentation Tips: For an appealing presentation, serve the bites on a beautiful platter, and consider drizzling a little extra honey or maple syrup over them before serving. Garnishing with a sprinkle of additional cinnamon or some fresh mint leaves can add a pop of color and freshness!
