Who were you when you were young?

Growing up, I was always the cute one, the nice one, the girl next door.

I was the girl that you could count on showing up to your house with homemade cookies and three different movie options to match your mood.

Coincidentally, it wasn’t until my mid-20’s that I realized that much of my grown-up woman identity was precariously built on this idea of being that sweet little girl.

It’s funny– I didn’t like it then–I always wanted to be a little more unpredictable with sharper edges.

When you read this post it’ll probably be my birthday–and guys; I’m not 17 anymore.

But you know what is still super cute, little, and sweet?

These Vegan Yogurt Granola Cups.

You only need 6-ingredients to make the granola cups and 2-ingredients to fill them!

So who am I without the the sweet sixteen mentality?

Well, this is 31.

One year past thirty-flirty-and-thriving, but still feeling a whole lot like like Jennifer Garner with an awkward 13-year-old peering out of adult eyes.

And life is a lot richer than “sweet” now, because even the sour helps tell the tale.

I’m a food blogger, a photographer, a writer, a reader, a friend, a wife, a sister, a daughter, a dog-mom, a yogi, a student, an artist, a business owner, an explorer.

I’m also a serious granola lover.

I also love a good vegan, gluten-free, and oil-free granola recipe, and this one is great.

It’s simple and easy to follow so you can easily mold it into cups for filling with yogurt and fruit!

We start with a hearty gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats base with chopped walnuts (you want them finely chopped!) for texture.

A “flax egg” binds the mixture together and sunflower seed butter adds creaminess without any added oils.

A pinch of cinnamon add a few spoonfuls of pure maple syrup keep the cups lightly sweet without any refined sugars.

The recipe makes 12 small cups or 8 larger cups, so pick your preferred size.

I  highly recommend using muffin liners here for easy removal.

The granola cups can be fragile and stubborn to remove from the pan even after greasing.

If you opt to grease your muffin with coconut oil instead, allow the pan to complete before using a knife to score the perimeter of the cup before carefully popping them out one by one.

I haven’t tried making this granola without the cups, but I suspect it would be just as delicious in any form.

Fill the cups with your favorite non-dairy yogurt and fresh berries.

I kept mine simple but you can take your toppings to any level!

Here are some other ideas:

  • chia seeds
  • slivered almonds
  • more granola
  • hemp hearts
  • shredded coconut
  • dried fruit

These Vegan Yogurt Granola Cups are perfect for a fun nutritious breakfast or snack!

Try baking the granola cups in advance and fill them before serving during the week.

Their fun shape makes them perfect to motivate kids and adults alike to at a nutritious breakfast.

Be sure to only fill as many cups as you plan to eat in one serving.

Store all leftover granola cups and yogurt and berries separately in the fridge to precent the cups from getting soggy.

My favorite berry toppings are blueberries and strawberries!

Description

Easy vegan, gluten-free, and oil-free baked granola cups served with plant-based yogurt and fresh berries! Perfect for an easy meal-prep breakfast.


Ingredients

  • 1 flax egg (1 TBSP ground flaxseed meal + 3 TBSP filtered water)
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 TBSP pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seed butter or neutral nut butter
  • 2 cups dairy-free refined sugar-free yogurt
  • 2 cups fresh berries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line a muffin tin with parchment liners or, alternatively, grease well with coconut oil.
  2. Mix up the flax egg in a large bowl and allow to gel for ~5 minutes. Add the oats, walnuts, cinnamon, maple syrup, and sunflower seed or nut butter to the bowl. Mix well with a spatula– the mixture should be thick and stick together.
  3. Divide the oat mixture evenly between 8-12 muffin cups. Using an empty muffin liner, press oat mixture into bottom and up sides of each muffin cup with your hands.
  4. Bake cups for 15 minutes or until edges are browned and crisp. Remove them from the oven and allow to cool slightly before continuing.
  5. Fill each cup with about 1/4 cup yogurt, and top with about 1/4 cup berries.
  6. Store the leftover cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week and assemble with yogurt and berries before serving.

#ad// {NEW!} When everything else feels hard, this #ad// {NEW!} When everything else feels hard, this Thai Carrot Sweet Potato Soup feels easy. 🥕🍠🥣 It also tastes amazing and every warm spoonful is like a comforting embrace. This Thai Carrot Sweet Potato Soup is made on the stovetop with root vegetables and yellow curry paste blended with a spoonful of nut butter. I used a standing blender but you can also use an immersion blender to achieve the creamiest consistency.

I love topping my soup with cilantro, @edenfoods Tamari Roasted Almonds, and @edenfoods Hot Pepper Sesame Oil. 

@edenfoods Tamari Roasted Almonds are infrared roasted organic almonds with complimentary organic tamari soy sauce. They’re a delicious snack packed with protein and fiber. You can enjoy them on their own, added to trail mix, on salads and bowls, or…on soup! 
 
@edenfoods Hot Pepper Sesame Oil is a delicious unrefined expeller pressed toasted sesame oil that is infused with hot red chili peppers. Friends, this stuff is HOT! Just a *drop* adds a big kick to your dressings, marinades, stir-fries, etc. If you have a wild side, add a drop or two to your soup bowl for a little extra heat! 

Feel free to add your favorites, like roasted chickpeas, green onion, and sesame seeds.
