Method

1. Granola
1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Prepare a 9-by-13-inch baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper. Combine the rolled oats, walnuts, and pecans in a large bowl. Set aside.
2. Combine the butter, honey, brown sugar, ground cardamom, salt, and vanilla bean seeds in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and mix until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Carefully pour this into the large bowl with the oat mixture. Mix until well combined.
3. Transfer to the baking sheet and spread into a thin layer. Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Stir and bake for another 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 45 minutes.
4. Once cooled, transfer to an airtight container. Mix in the dried cherries and blueberries. This can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 10 days. This makes enough granola for about 10 portions.
2. Berry Yogurt Mixture
1. Place the yogurt, frozen blueberries, frozen blackberries, and banana in a blender. Blend until smooth.
3. Assembly
1. Place the granola at the bottom of a bowl. Add the berry yogurt. Top with coconut flakes, strawberries, and additional granola to your liking.
