Breakfast Trifle

Trifle is not just a dessert—it can be eaten for breakfast, too. This has as many layers, and is as pleasing to the eye, as a traditional trifle, but it’s made with yogurt, chia seeds, frozen berries, brioche, and granola (store-bought or homemade). A straight-sided trifle bowl is a great way to display the layers of this breakfast trifle, but if you don't have one, any large bowl will do.

This recipe was excerpted from 'Time to Eat' by Nadiya Hussain. Buy the full book on Amazon.
