Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup granola, more for topping
- 1 cup yogurt of choice
- ½ cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced

Instructions
- Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners or use a silicone baking pan.

- Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of granola over the strawberries for added crunch.
- Place the pan in the freezer and chill until firm, approximately 2-4 hours.
