    How to make strawberry cheesecake jars:<\/h2>\n

    First, you’ll want to make the granola in your oven. This takes about 12-15 minutes and should be cooled completely before adding it to the jar. This step can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container. Second, make the creamy mixture using the banana, mascarpone cheese, and Greek yoghurt. Finally, you will assemble the cheesecake treat by adding the cooled granola to a jar and topping it with the cream mixture and diced strawberries! Serve chilled.<\/p>\n
