Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (whole milk for extra creaminess, or low-fat if you prefer)
  • 2–3 ripe figs, sliced or quartered
  • 1–2 teaspoons honey, plus more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons granola or toasted oats
  • 1 tablespoon chopped nuts (pistachios, almonds, or walnuts work well)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional, for extra fiber)
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon or cardamom (optional, for warmth)
  • Small pinch of flaky sea salt (optional, to balance sweetness)
  • 1–2 teaspoons lemon zest or a squeeze of lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

Method
 

  1. Prep your figs: Rinse and pat dry. Slice or quarter them so they’re easy to scoop with a spoon.
  2. Build the base: Spoon the Greek yogurt into a bowl and smooth the top with the back of your spoon.
  3. Sweeten it: Drizzle the honey over the yogurt. Start with a teaspoon, then add more if you like it sweeter.
  4. Add the figs: Arrange the sliced figs on top. Don’t worry about making it perfect—rustic looks great here.
  5. Bring the crunch: Sprinkle on the granola and chopped nuts to add texture.
  6. Boost with seeds: Add chia or flaxseeds if you want more fiber and healthy fats.
  7. Season lightly: Dust with cinnamon or cardamom, and add a tiny pinch of salt to sharpen the flavors.
  8. Brighten it up: Finish with lemon zest or a light squeeze of lemon juice for contrast.
  9. Serve right away: Enjoy immediately so the granola stays crisp and the figs taste fresh.
