Ingredients
- 4 Weetabix biscuits
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh berries for topping
- Extra lemon zest for garnish
Instructions
Crush the Weetabix
- Place Weetabix biscuits into a bowl. Crush them gently using your hands or a spoon until they become crumbly.
Add the Milk
- Pour milk over the crushed Weetabix carefully. Stir lightly until the cereal softens and absorbs most of the liquid.
Mix the Yogurt
- Add Greek yogurt into the bowl. Stir until the mixture becomes creamy, smooth and fully combined together evenly.
Add Lemon Flavor
- Pour lemon juice and add lemon zest carefully. Mix well so the fresh citrus flavor spreads through the mixture.
Add Sweetness
- Drizzle honey and vanilla extract into the bowl. Stir again until everything tastes lightly sweet and creamy.
Add the Poppy Seeds
- Sprinkle poppy seeds into the mixture. Stir gently so the seeds spread evenly throughout the overnight Weetabix mixture.
Fill the Containers
- Spoon the mixture into small jars or containers carefully. Smooth the top using the back of a spoon.
Chill Overnight
- Cover the jars tightly and place them inside the refrigerator overnight. This helps the mixture become thick and creamy.
Add Toppings
- Remove the jars from the refrigerator next morning. Top with fresh berries and extra lemon zest before serving.
Enjoy the Breakfast
- Serve chilled and enjoy every creamy spoonful. This breakfast feels fresh, filling, and perfect for busy mornings.
