What we love most about making yogurt sundaes for breakfast is that everyone can get involved in making their own. Just provide your kids with the sundae base of yogurt, set out all the topping options, and let your kids pick out what they want to add!
To make your own breakfast sundaes at home, you’ll need to start with a base of Greek yogurt (regular yogurt is fine as well). The rest depends on you!
Our recipe for yogurt sundaes includes:
Chopped fruit
Granola
Sprinkles (optional)
Chocolate chips
Sliced almonds
Strawberry halves
Honey
But these ingredients are just suggestions. We’d love it if you tried our sundae version first just so you can see how great it tastes. But feel free to adapt the recipe to your own family’s breakfast preferences!
Why not try one of these yummy topping ideas:
Cheerios™ cereal
Any nut butter
Dark chocolate chips
Whipped cream
Jam or jelly
Graham cracker crumbs
Chia seeds
Dried fruit
Any type of fresh fruit you like
Tip: If you want to make these like a traditional sundae, use a waffle cone bowl!
What Kind of Yogurt Should I Use for my Breakfast Sundaes?
The beauty of this simple recipe is that you can adapt it to your family’s tastes. We love vanilla Greek yogurt because it’s thick, creamy, and full of protein. Traditional vanilla yogurt would be another excellent option for your breakfast sundaes.
If you really want to get creative, why not try different flavored yogurts, like strawberry or cherry?
You can even make this simple breakfast dairy-free or vegan by swapping out the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt. How delicious would that be?
The Best Fruit for Yogurt in a Breakfast Sundae
The flavor of Greek yogurt pairs well with a variety of different fruit, but there are a few types of fruit that taste amazing when mixed with yogurt. If you’re wondering what kind of fruit to add to your yogurt, try:
Berries, like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries
Tropical fruits, like pineapple, bananas, coconut, kiwi, or mango
Sweet fruits like peaches or apricots
If you want this to be more like a Breakfast Banana Split, make sure to include bananas!
How to Make Breakfast Sundaes
The process is basically the same, no matter how you’re making these sundaes. This idea works if you’re making this simple breakfast recipe for your kids before they head off for school, or you’re letting them put together their own yogurt sundaes.
Step 1
Begin by setting out four small bowls and filling each with ½ cup vanilla Greek yogurt.
Step 2
Divide your chopped fruit (like strawberries and bananas) evenly across each of the bowls, then sprinkle granola over the top of the fruit to add a little crunch.
Step 3
Top each breakfast sundae with mini chocolate chips, almonds, and sprinkles for some sweetness.
Step 4
Finish by garnishing your sundaes with sliced strawberries. Add a drizzle of honey over the top of all the ingredients.
Then grab your spoon and enjoy!
Breakfast Sundae Tips
These breakfast sundaes couldn’t be easier to make, but with these simple tips, you’ll be ready to whip up your own sundaes for breakfast in no time.
With all the fresh ingredients in this breakfast dish, it’s best to enjoy them right after they’re made to ensure they taste amazing.
Since this simple breakfast recipe includes a variety of textures and flavors, it’s essential to create uniform sizes so you can enjoy all those flavors in each bite. When chopping your fruit for the sundaes, make sure to cut each piece into bite-sized chunks. This way, the fruit pieces aren’t too large when enjoyed with all the other elements in the bowl.
If you’re not in a hurry and want to make this breakfast a little more fun for your kids, try turning your breakfast sundaes into a sundae bar. Spoon the yogurt into a bowl for each of your family members, then set out all the ingredients in separate bowls. Place a spoon in each dish so everyone can scoop out what they want for their sundaes, creating an interactive breakfast your kids are sure to love.
To make this recipe even more fun, serve your yogurt breakfast in cute sundae bowls or fluted dessert glasses. This adds another exciting element to this unique breakfast idea.
