Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Dash cinnamon, drizzle maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  • Add the ingredients to a bowl and stir well to combine.
  • If adding the cinnamon and maple syrup, start with a very small amount of each (or just one) and increase to taste as you like. (You can also use honey for kids over age 1.)
  • Serve in a bowl plain, with fruit, or with a sprinkle of crushed-up granola (without any whole nuts for kids). You can also serve this to kids in a reusable pouch.

Notes

Store prepared yogurt in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Serve with diced or sliced fruit or with Homemade Granola, Nut-Free Granola, or a store-bought one you prefer. (Avoid whole nuts in granola for kids under about age 4.)
Add a dash of cinnamon for more flavor.
Add a drizzle of maple syrup, about 1 teaspoon to start, to sweeten to taste as desired. You can also use honey for kids over age 1.
