Keto Made Easy: Gourmet Yogurt Bowl for Breakfast

This easy gourmet yogurt bowl is a great snack, breakfast or lunch option if you are looking to eat healthier. For Keto eaters, you can use a Carbmaster kind, Oikos Triple Zero, unsweetened Greek yogurt or other options that aren’t loaded with sugar. Ideally for Keto, you want to find a yogurt high in natural milk fats and low in any added sweeteners. For non-Keto eaters (like my kids), I prefer whole milk (full fat) and low sugar yogurts.

Gourmet Yogurt Bowl Ingredients

You can plan ahead with a shopping trip, or just combine what you have on hand. Here are some great ingredient options.

• Yogurt (can be plain or any flavor, but I usually go with vanilla)
• Fruit
  • Raspberries
  • Blueberries
  • Blackberries
  • Strawberries
• Seeds and Nuts
  • Chia Seeds
  • Almonds
  • Walnuts
  • Pecans
  • Sunflower Seeds
  • Soy Nuts
  • Macadamia Nuts
• Honey
• Coconut Flakes

Toasting Nuts or Coconut Flakes

To increase the flavor complexity, you can toast some of your nuts and seeds. Simply heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet on medium high heat. Add the nuts or coconut. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Once the nuts or coconut is golden brown, you can choose to add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.

Remove from heat and allow to cool completely on a wax paper.

Combining Your Flavors

Once you’ve determined your flavors, the easy part is layering them! For this bowl, I used vanilla yogurt, chia seeds, raspberries and toasted walnuts. The kids loved it too!
