Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or your favorite flavored variety)

1 cup granola (any flavor or texture that you love)

2 cups mixed fresh fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, banana slices, and kiwi)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for flavor)

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for warmth)

4 small mason jars or glass containers with airtight lids

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Ingredients: Begin by washing the mixed fruits thoroughly. Cut them into bite-sized pieces for easy eating. If using bananas, slice them just before you assemble the jars to prevent browning and keep them fresh.

    Mix the Yogurt: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, if you choose to include them. Stir the mixture until it is smooth and well blended. If you prefer your yogurt a bit sweeter, mix in honey or maple syrup to taste.

      Layer the Jars: Take your mason jars and add approximately ½ cup of the yogurt mixture to the bottom of each jar. Use a spoon to spread the yogurt evenly across the base.

        Add Granola: Next, spoon in about 2 tablespoons of granola on top of the yogurt layer in each jar. Distribute it evenly to create a delightful crunchy layer.

          Build the Fruit Layer: Now, add ¼ cup of the mixed fresh fruits over the granola. Aim to arrange the fruits in a colorful manner, mixing and matching to enhance visual appeal.

            Repeat Layers: Continue layering until the jars are filled. Add the remaining yogurt, followed by more granola, and finish with the last layer of mixed fruits on top to showcase their vibrant colors.

              Garnish and Seal: If desired, place a fresh mint leaf on top of each jar for a touch of color and an extra hint of freshness. Carefully seal the jars with their lids.

                Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the jars for at least a few hours or overnight until you are ready to enjoy them. For the best texture and flavor, consume within 2-3 days.
