5 Gourmet Breakfast Bowls with Chunky Signature Granola

Transform your morning routine with these award-winning granola recipes that prove breakfast can be both indulgent and nourishing

Why Chunky Granola Changes Everything

There's something magical about granola that actually stays crunchy. You know that disappointing moment when your granola turns to mush the second it hits milk? That's exactly what inspired us to create our Signature Granola 10 years ago – chunky, substantial pieces that hold their texture whether you're pouring milk over them or diving into a thick smoothie bowl.
Our award-winning Signature Granola isn't just chunky for the sake of being different. Each handmade batch is carefully crafted to deliver that satisfying crunch that makes breakfast feel like a proper meal, not just something you grab on the way out the door. The Great Taste Award judges agreed – this is granola that puts delicious first, healthy second.

Recipe 1: The Classic Greek Yogurt Parfait (That Actually Stays Crunchy)

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Serves: 1

Ingredients:

  • 60g Naturally Granola Signature blend
  • 200g thick Greek yogurt
  • 150g mixed seasonal berries
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp chopped almonds (optional)

Method:

  1. In a tall glass or jar, layer half the yogurt at the bottom
  2. Add half the berries and drizzle with 1 tbsp honey
  3. Sprinkle 30g of Signature Granola – notice how the chunks hold their shape
  4. Repeat layers, finishing with granola on top
  5. Add chopped almonds for extra crunch if desired
Why it works: The chunky texture means your granola won't dissolve into the yogurt like smaller varieties. Each spoonful delivers that satisfying crunch from start to finish.

Recipe 2: The Smoothie Bowl That Won't Go Soggy

Prep Time: 8 minutes | Serves: 1

Ingredients:

  • 50g Naturally Granola Signature blend
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 100g frozen mango chunks
  • 150ml coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • Fresh berries for topping
  • Coconut flakes

Method:

  1. Blend banana, mango, and coconut milk until thick and creamy
  2. Pour into a bowl – keep it thick enough to support toppings
  3. Arrange Signature Granola in lines across the surface
  4. Add berries, chia seeds, and coconut flakes
  5. Eat immediately while granola maintains its crunch
The chunky difference: Regular granola gets soggy within minutes on a smoothie bowl. Our chunky pieces stay crispy long enough for you to actually enjoy your breakfast instead of rushing through it.

Recipe 3: Overnight Oats Upgrade

Prep Time: 5 minutes + overnight chilling | Serves: 1

Ingredients:

  • 40g rolled oats
  • 30g Naturally Granola Signature blend
  • 150ml oat milk
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Fresh fruit for topping

Method:

  1. Mix oats, half the granola, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla in a jar
  2. Add oat milk and stir well
  3. Refrigerate overnight
  4. In the morning, top with remaining granola and fresh fruit
  5. The overnight granola will have softened slightly, while the fresh topping stays crunchy
Pro tip: This recipe works beautifully with our Overnight Oats product too – double the convenience, double the deliciousness!

Recipe 4: Granola-Crusted Pancake Stack

Prep Time: 15 minutes | Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • 60g Naturally Granola Signature blend
  • 200g plain flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 300ml milk
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Maple syrup for serving

Method:

  1. Lightly crush 30g of granola (keep it chunky, not powdered)
  2. Make pancake batter with flour, eggs, milk, butter, sugar, baking powder, and salt
  3. Fold in the lightly crushed granola
  4. Cook pancakes as usual
  5. Stack and top with remaining whole granola pieces
  6. Drizzle with maple syrup
The handmade advantage: Because our granola is made in small batches by hand 👐, each piece has character – some bigger, some smaller – creating interesting textures throughout your pancakes.

  4. Add dollops of Greek yogurt
  5. Top with poached egg
