Tips
If you don’t have a food processor or blender, chop fruit, and place each type in an individual bowl. Add ½ cup yogurt to each bowl, and hand mix. Prepare cereal layer by placing it in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin, mallet, or potato masher to crush to desired consistency. Add remaining cereal layer ingredients. Shake bag to mix.
