Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 ½ cups plain Greek yogurt (substitute with vanilla yogurt for extra sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup granola (for topping)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and honey or maple syrup. Gently toss the strawberries to ensure they are evenly coated with the sweetener. Allow them to sit for about 10 minutes, which will help them macerate and release their flavorful juices.

    Make the Yogurt Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. This step will enhance the yogurt's flavor and incorporate a subtle sweetness that complements the strawberries.

      Layer the Cups: Take four serving cups or bowls. Begin by adding a generous spoonful of the yogurt mixture to the bottom of each cup. Then, layer in some of the macerated strawberries, ensuring an even distribution. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, making sure to finish with the strawberry layer on top for an appealing presentation.

        Add the Crunch: Sprinkle a tablespoon of granola atop each cup to introduce a delightful crunch and texture that contrasts beautifully with the creamy yogurt and juicy strawberries.

          Garnish: For an elegant touch, add a few fresh mint leaves on top of each cup. This not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also adds a refreshing burst of flavor.

            Chill and Serve: For optimal flavor development, refrigerate the yogurt cups for at least 30 minutes prior to serving. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld together deliciously.
