Ingredients

Blueberry Compote

  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries (200 g)
  • 2 tsp maple syrup or sugar
  • 1 to 2 tbsp water

Yogurt Layer

  • 3/4 cup low fat Greek yogurt (200 g)
  • Crunch Layer
  • 4 to 6 cantuccini cookies (40 to 50 g)

Optional:

  • Extra maple syrup for sweetening yogurt
  • Granola instead of cookies
  • Chocolate chips for topping

Method

  1. Add the blueberries and water to a small saucepan. Heat gently for a few minutes until the blueberries soften and release their juices.
  2. Stir while cooking and lightly crush the berries with a spoon. For a smoother blueberry yogurt texture, briefly blend the mixture with an immersion blender.
  3. Mix in the maple syrup or sugar. Let the blueberry compote cool slightly so it stays warm but not hot.
  4. Roughly crush the cantuccini cookies.
  5. Add half of the cookies to the bottom of two glasses.
  6. Spoon part of the warm blueberry mixture over the cookies so they soften slightly.
  7. Add half of the Greek yogurt on top.
  8. Repeat the layers with the remaining cookies, blueberry compote, and yogurt.
  9. Finish with extra blueberry compote on top.
  10. Let the dessert rest for at least 10 minutes before serving so the layers soften slightly and the flavors combine.

Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Dessert glasses or jars
  • Optional immersion blender

Notes

  • Do not overcook the blueberries. Heating them briefly helps preserve freshness and nutrients
  • Greek yogurt and blueberries are naturally high in protein, antioxidants, and vitamins.
  • Cantuccini give the dessert a really good crunch and slightly cake like texture once softened
  • For a lower sugar blueberry Greek yogurt recipe, use sugar free jam or natural sweeteners.
  • You can replace Greek yogurt with skyr, blended cottage cheese, or quark mixed with milk.
  • Granola works well instead of cookies if you want a breakfast version.
    This recipe is also delicious with apple sauce and speculoos cookies during colder months.
