🥣 What It Is

Layers of whipped yogurt, quick skillet-oat crisp, fresh blueberries, honey, and a whisper of lemon zest.

🧾 Ingredients (serves 2)

• Cloud Base: 1 cup (240 g) thick yogurt (Greek or coconut) • 1–2 tsp honey or maple • 1/2 tsp vanilla • pinch fine salt
• Quick Oat Crisp: 1/2 cup (45 g) rolled oats • 2 tbsp chopped nuts or seeds • 1 tbsp honey/maple • 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter • pinch cinnamon • pinch salt
• Fruit & Finish: 1–1½ cups blueberries (or mixed berries) • lemon zest (pinch) • extra honey to drizzle • edible flowers or mint (optional)

✍️ Method

1. Whip cloud: In a bowl, whisk yogurt with honey/maple, vanilla, and a tiny pinch of salt until silky.
2. Skillet crisp (5–7 min): Warm oil/butter; stir in oats, nuts/seeds, cinnamon, salt. Toast 3–4 min. Stir in honey/maple; cook 30–60 sec until glossy. Cool 2–3 min to crisp.
3. Layer: Glasses or bowls: yogurt → berries → oat crisp. Repeat. Finish with lemon zest, honey drizzle, and flowers/mint if using.

🌿 Maker’s Notes

• Ultra-light: Fold 1–2 tbsp whipped cream or aquafaba into yogurt.
• Protein boost: Stir 1 scoop vanilla/plain protein into yogurt; loosen with a splash of milk.
• Refined-sugar-free: Use date syrup; skip added sweetener in yogurt.

📦 Storage

• Keep components separate 2–3 days; layer just before serving so the crisp stays airy.
