  • It's the kind of breakfast you can throw together half-awake and still have it taste amazing.

  • Once I left the berries wet and the whole thing turned into a watery mess—always dry your fruit first.
  • Layering fruit under the granola keeps everything crisp until the last bite.
03 -
  • If your granola's gone a bit soft, toast it in a dry pan for a minute—instant crunch revival.
  • Layer your ingredients instead of mixing for the prettiest presentation and best texture in every bite.
