Yield: 2 servings

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 7 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pint strawberries, stemmed and cut in half
  • 2 (5.3 oz.) containers of non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ¼ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the strawberries in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, and stir at least once while roasting. The larger your berries, the longer they will need to bake. They are ready when they soften and a syrup is visible on the bottom of the baking sheet. Let cool.

  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, honey, vanilla, and cinnamon. Separate the yogurt and the strawberries into two portions.

  3. In each of two serving bowls, layer a portion of the yogurt and strawberries with their natural syrup. Top each with a tablespoon of walnuts before serving.
