Instructions
- 1
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, 3 tbsp maple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth and evenly combined. Taste — the mixture should be bright and tangy with a clear lemon note. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

While the yogurt chills, warm the coconut oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until melted. Add the rolled oats, 1 tbsp maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt, and stir to coat. Cook, stirring frequently, for 4–5 minutes until the oats are golden and smell toasty. Spread onto a plate and let cool completely — they will crisp as they cool.
