Skyr baked plums breakfast bowl

The skyr baked plums breakfast bowl is built around contrast and simplicity. Thick skyr creates a clean, protein-rich base, while baked plums add warmth, juiciness and gentle caramelized sweetness straight from the oven.

Ingredients

• Plain skyr (or thick Greek-style yogurt)
• Fresh plums, halved and pitted
• Olive oil or a small knob of butter
• Cinnamon or vanilla (optional)
• Chopped nuts or granola
• Honey or maple syrup, to finish

How to make it

1. Preheat the oven to 190°C. Place the plum halves cut-side up in a small baking dish, lightly drizzle with olive oil or butter and add cinnamon if using.
2. Bake for 15–20 minutes, until the plums are soft, juicy and lightly caramelized at the edges.
3. Spoon skyr into a bowl and gently smooth the surface.
4. Top with the warm baked plums, add nuts or granola, and finish with a light drizzle of honey.

Why this bowl works

Skyr delivers high-quality protein without heaviness, helping keep energy steady through the morning. Baking the plums concentrates their natural sweetness, reducing the need for added sugars while creating a comforting oven-to-bowl texture.

Variations & meal-prep tips

• Replace plums with baked pears, peaches or figs depending on the season.
• Add a spoon of almond or peanut butter for extra richness and satiety.
• Bake a larger batch of plums and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
