Ingredients
  

2 large apples (preferably Fuji or Honeycrisp), peeled and diced

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon brown sugar (or maple syrup for a healthier option)

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ cup granola (optional, for topping)

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts or pecans (optional, for topping)

Drizzle of honey or maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: In a medium saucepan, combine the diced apples, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are softened but still hold their shape. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

    Prepare the Yogurt: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. Stir well to incorporate.

      Assemble the Cups: In serving cups or bowls, start by adding a layer of the yogurt mixture at the bottom. Then, add a generous spoonful of the cinnamon apple mixture over the yogurt. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with a layer of the cinnamon apples on top.

        Add Toppings: Sprinkle granola and chopped nuts on top of the cups for added crunch and texture. Drizzle a bit of honey or maple syrup over the top if desired.

          Serve: Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving. These yogurt swirl cups make a delightful breakfast, snack, or healthy dessert!
