This summer breakfast sundae is what happens when you treat your morning meal like dessert, without the guilt. Layers of creamy yogurt and cottage cheese get topped with whatever ripe, seasonal fruit you have on hand, then finished with a scattering of crunchy granola.

It takes all of five minutes to assemble and looks stunning in a clear glass or parfait dish. The combination of tangy dairy and sweet fruit hits every note you want first thing in the morning.

Kitchen Tips

  • Use full-fat or 2% cottage cheese for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
  • Layer in a clear glass to show off the colorful fruit for a presentation that looks as good as it tastes.
  • Prep the fruit the night before and store it covered in the fridge for an even faster morning assembly.
  • Add the granola right before serving to keep it crunchy.

Variations

  • Swap yogurt for Greek yogurt for extra protein and a thicker, tangier base.
  • Drizzle with honey, agave, or a spoonful of fruit preserves for added sweetness.
  • Top with chia seeds, hemp hearts, or sliced almonds for more nutrition and crunch.
