# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It tastes wickedly indulgent while being packed with protein and probiotics.
  • You can make it with what's already in your kitchen and nothing gets dirty except one bowl.
  • It actually feels special enough to serve guests, but easy enough to make on a random Tuesday afternoon.
02 -
  • The apple pieces will brown slightly over a few days in the freezer, but they still taste wonderful and the color just gets more autumnal.
  • If your yogurt mixture is too thin, it won't hold together when you break it apart—make sure you're using Greek yogurt, not regular, because that thickness is what makes the magic happen.
03 -
  • Prep all your toppings before you spread the yogurt mixture, because it starts sticking to your hands if you let it sit too long at room temperature.
  • If you want extra crunch that stays crispy through the freeze, add a thin layer of granola just before freezing, tucking it into the surface so it stays put.
