These delicious granola cups are super easy to make and are perfect for morning breakfasts, brunch or for a quick snack! I personally love topping them with fruits and yogurt (either plain, vanilla or greek - I prefer to mix vanilla yogurt into my plain yogurt to make it a little more sweet). These granola cups are perfect as they are delicious with any fruit you choose as your topping!
A couple months ago a couple of my girl friends were getting together to get ready for one of our friend's weddings. We decided to do a cute brunch while getting ready so I made these granola cups and put together a little make your own granola cup set up. I made up a plate of my plain granola cups and then in small bowls I had yogurt and different berries and shredded coconut so the girls could make up their own little granola cups! This was a huge hit and would be great for any brunch, baby shower, bridal shower or any other get together!
Healthy Foodiee Tip!
Instead of using oil for these granola cups, I use unsweetened apple sauce to reduce the amount of fat and to add a natural sweet flavour to my granola cups.
