Breakfast Fruit Cup

If they made it, they will eat it. This colorful breakfast fruit cup lets kids layer fresh fruits and creamy yogurt themselves. It becomes their own creation, so they are excited to dig in. Fresh, simple, and full of natural sweetness, it starts the day bright and nourishing.

• 2 cups mixed fresh fruits (like strawberries sliced, blueberries, banana slices, kiwi chunks, or orange segments)

• 1 cup low-fat vanilla or plain Greek yogurt

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional for warm flavor)

• A handful of raisins or a sprinkle of granola for extra crunch (optional)

Directions

• Wash and chop the fruits into bite-size pieces so they are easy to spoon. In a small bowl, gently mix the fruits together. Divide the fruit evenly into 4 small cups or bowls. Spoon a rounded tablespoon of yogurt on top of the fruit in each cup. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the yogurt if you like. Let the kids help layer or add their own toppings like raisins. Serve right away for the freshest taste, or chill for 10 minutes if you want it cooler.
