Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Layer
- 2 cups plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
Granola Layer
- 1 cup granola
Fruit Layer
- 1/2 cup strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
Sweetener & Garnish
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt: Spoon a layer of Greek yogurt into the bottom of 4 small glasses or jars, creating an even base layer for the parfait.
- Add Granola: Sprinkle a layer of granola over the yogurt, providing a crunchy texture that contrasts with the creaminess.
- Layer Mixed Berries: Add a layer of mixed fresh berries, including strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, on top of the granola.
- Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process—yogurt, granola, then berries—until the glasses are filled, making sure to end with a few berries on top for a beautiful finish.
- Drizzle Sweetener: Optionally, drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top for added sweetness.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the crunch of the granola or refrigerate for up to 2 hours for a softer parfait texture.
Notes
- You can substitute berries with other fruits such as bananas, mango, or kiwi to suit your taste.
- For a dairy-free option, replace Greek yogurt with coconut or almond milk yogurt.
- To maintain granola’s crunch, add it just before serving rather than layering too early.
