Ingredients
  

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons honey (or substitute with maple syrup for a vegan option)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup fresh fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, or sliced bananas)

1/4 cup granola (optional, for a delightful crunchy topping)

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a spatula or whisk to stir the mixture until it is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Incorporate Chia Seeds: Gently fold the chia seeds into the yogurt mixture using a spatula. Ensure that the seeds are evenly distributed throughout for a uniform texture.

      Prepare the Fruit: If you’re using fresh fruit, rinse it under cold water and chop into small, bite-sized pieces. Carefully fold the fruit into the yogurt mixture, being cautious not to mash the fruit too much.

        Form the Clusters: Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded mounds of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between each mound to prevent them from sticking together while freezing.

          Add Granola (Optional): If you choose, sprinkle a small amount of granola on top of each yogurt cluster. This will provide a delightful crunch once frozen.

            Freeze the Clusters: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the clusters to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

              Serve and Store: After freezing, carefully remove the clusters from the parchment paper and transfer them to an airtight container for storage in the freezer. Enjoy these refreshing clusters straight from the freezer whenever you like!
