This Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Bowl is:

  •  Packed with flavor: fresh apples, creamy yogurt, and warm spices combine into a delicious and satisfying morning bowl
  • Versatile: use either thick creamy Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for a high protein and filling morning meal
  • Creamy & crunchy
  • Easy to make ahead the night before
  • Naturally gluten-free, and can easily be made vegan with a non-dairy yogurt

I love creating new ways to enjoy yogurt or cottage cheese for breakfast aside from just eating them plain.  This recipe is awesome with cottage cheese as you get a great sweet/salty combination from the apples and granola.

Whats In This High Protein Breakfast Bowl?
