# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's ready in 10 minutes, which means even on rushed mornings you're eating something that tastes genuinely special.
  • You can prep it the night before and grab it running out the door, no excuses for skipping breakfast.
  • The layers stay interesting—every spoonful brings a different texture and flavor combination that keeps things from getting boring.
02 -
  • If you're making these ahead, keep the granola separate and stir it in right before eating—it'll soften up like sad cereal if it sits in the yogurt overnight.
  • Greek yogurt that's been sitting open in your fridge can sometimes get watery on top; pour that off before mixing it with the honey so your base stays creamy and thick.
03 -
  • Slice your banana just before assembling so it doesn't oxidize and turn brown—nobody wants that shadow in their beautiful jar.
  • If your yogurt feels too thick, loosen it with a splash of milk before mixing in the honey, and remember that Greek yogurt gets tangier the longer it sits open, which actually works in your favor if you like that edge.
