# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Zero cooking required means you can actually enjoy your guests instead of being stuck in the kitchen.
  • Everyone gets exactly what they want, which somehow makes a simple breakfast feel like a special occasion.
  • It's one of those rare dishes that looks more impressive than the effort it took to make.
02 -
  • Don't let berries sit in yogurt for more than a few minutes before eating or they'll start releasing their juice and turning everything purple—assemble at the last possible moment.
  • If you're making this ahead for a party, keep the yogurt cold and the toppings at room temperature in separate bowls; let guests assemble their own just before eating.
03 -
  • Toast your almonds in a dry skillet for exactly three minutes until they smell toasted but not burned—this single step completely elevates the texture.
  • If you want the granola to stay crispy, serve it in a separate bowl instead of mixing it in ahead of time, so people can add it last like the professionals do.
