# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's ready in the time it takes to pour your coffee, yet tastes like you spent actual effort on breakfast.
  • The protein hits different when it's hidden in something creamy and delicious instead of a powder shake.
  • You can make it in a jar, eat it, and feel zero guilt about washing up.
02 -
  • Don't mix the granola into the yogurt base the night before unless you want a soggy, sad breakfast—add it right before you eat or the crunch completely disappears.
  • Cashew butter brands vary wildly in how thick they are, so if yours seems stiff, you might need to loosen it with a teaspoon of milk or yogurt to make swirling easier.
03 -
  • Room temperature cashew butter mixes into yogurt faster than cold butter straight from the fridge, so let it sit out for a few minutes if you have time.
  • If you're making two servings at once, divide everything in half so both glasses look equally pretty—it's a small thing but it feels more intentional than dumping everything in one big bowl.
