Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1 large apple, peeled, cored, and finely diced

1/2 cup pecans, chopped

2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Optional: 1/4 cup granola for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apple and Pecan Mixture:

    - In a medium bowl, combine the finely diced apple and chopped pecans.

      - Drizzle the honey over the mixture, then add the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until everything is evenly coated.

        Mix the Yogurt:

          - In a separate large bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt. If you like it sweeter, you can add an extra tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the yogurt and mix well.

            Combine:

              - Gently fold the apple and pecan mixture into the yogurt until fully incorporated. The yogurt should have little bits of apple and pecan throughout.

                Form Clusters:

                  - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

                    - Using a tablespoon, scoop the yogurt mixture and drop it onto the lined baking sheet in small clusters. You should aim for about 1-2 tablespoons per cluster.

                      Freeze:

                        - Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 2-4 hours, or until the yogurt clusters are completely frozen.

                          Serve:

                            - Once frozen, remove the clusters from the baking sheet and store them in a zip-lock bag or airtight container in the freezer.

                              - Optional: Sprinkle granola on top right before serving for an added crunch!

                                Enjoy:

                                  - Grab a few clusters straight from the freezer for a refreshing snack or dessert!
