What to keep in mind.
4 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1For a creamier texture, you can stir the peanut butter directly into the yogurt before adding other toppings.
- 2Use a very ripe banana for maximum natural sweetness, which might allow you to use less honey.
- 3Ensure your granola is fresh and has been stored in an airtight container to maintain its crunch.
- 4If your peanut butter is very thick, mix it with a tiny bit of warm water to make it easier to drizzle.
