Layered Yoghurt Pots - VJ Cooks (2024)

Breakfast yoghurt pots made from layers of creamy Greek yoghurt, homemade berry coulis and homemade maple and coconut toasted muesli. This tasty breakfast will last in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Breakfast is one of those meals I love eating, but resent making. The mornings can be so busy with everyone getting ready for school and work. To help combat the morning stress, I've started making these Layered Yoghurt Pots.

Made from layers of homemade muesli, berry coulis and Greek yoghurt, they are a perfect mixture of sweet, tart, crunchy and creamy. Best of all though, I can make 4 days' worth of breakfast in one go!

Ingredient notes:

• Greek Yoghurt: This is a thick and creamy yoghurt which is more savoury than sweet. This balances out the sweet berries and maple muesli so well. If you prefer, use your favourite yoghurt.
• Frozen Berries: Again, use your favourite frozen berries whether they are a mix, or just one variety. I tend to buy whichever is on special! If you like strawberries, check out Grace's recipe for Panna Cotta with Strawberry Coulis.
• Maple Syrup: I love the caramel flavour of maple syrup. You could also use honey.

Note: Scroll to the recipe card for the ingredients, quantities and the full method.

Step by step instructions:

Toasted Muesli:Preheat the oven to 160°C fan bake. Add the rolled oats, sunflower seeds, coconut and cinnamon to a large bowl. Mix to combine.

Place the coconut oil, maple syrup and rice bran oil in a glass bowl then melt in the microwave in 30 second bursts until the coconut oil has melted.

Mix to combine then pour over the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, mix everything together. Pour into a roasting dish.

Bake in the oven for 15 minutes then stir. Bake for another 10 minutes and stir again then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

Berry Coulis:Add the frozen mixed berries and honey to a saucepan. Simmer over a gentle heat until the berries have broken down. Mash any large berries if needed. Set aside to cool until ready to assemble.

To assemble:Add a thick layer of yoghurt to the base of 6 glasses, add a layer of berry coulis and a layer of toasted muesli. Repeat the layers again with yoghurt, coulis and muesli.

Place in the fridge to set before serving. These can be made up to 4 days in advance.

Storage:

The berry coulis and the toasted muesli can be made in advance. Store the coulis in an airtight container in the fridge up to three days before making the pots. The muesli can be stored in an airtight container in the pantry up to a week before using.

Once you've made the desired number of layered yoghurt pots, store them in the fridge for up to 4 days.
