Though most caramel apples might be off limits, this sweet snack sure isn’t. It’s easy to throw together and great any time of the day . . . even for breakfast! Next time you go to a warehouse or club store, pick up some clear plastic containers with lids. You can make a few of these at a time and store them in your refrigerator for a few days so they’re ready when you are.

Spoon the yogurt into a sundae dish or small, deep bowl. Top the yogurt evenly with the apples, followed by the granola. Drizzle the caramel over the top. Serve immediately.
