Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste based on desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup fresh or dried cranberries, roughly chopped

1/2 cup granola (your preferred blend for added texture)

1/4 cup slivered almonds or chopped walnuts

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Optional: Zest of 1 lemon for a burst of freshness

Instructions
 

Mix the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and optional lemon zest. Use a whisk or spatula to mix thoroughly until the ingredients are smooth and well-blended, achieving a creamy consistency.

    Add Crunchy Ingredients: Carefully fold in the chopped cranberries, granola, slivered almonds (or walnuts), and sea salt using a spatula. Gently stir to ensure all ingredients are well-distributed throughout the yogurt mixture, providing an even texture and flavor in each bite.

      Prepare for Freezing: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Using a tablespoon or a small ice cream scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave enough space between each mound to allow for expansion as they freeze.

        Freeze: Carefully place the baking sheet in the freezer. Allow the clusters to freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until they are completely solid and hold their shape.

          Store or Serve: Once frozen, you can enjoy the yogurt clusters right away or store them for later. If you choose to store them, transfer the clusters to an airtight container, layering them with parchment paper to prevent them from sticking together.

            Optional Garnish: For an added luxurious touch, drizzle the frozen clusters with melted dark chocolate or sprinkle with shredded coconut just before serving, enhancing both flavor and visual appeal.
