Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Mixture
- 2 cups plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Layers
- 1 cup granola
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
Garnish
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter parfait. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Layer the Parfait: Take clear glasses or jars and start by adding 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture at the bottom of each. Next, add a layer of granola, followed by a layer of mixed berries including strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Repeat these layers until the glasses are filled, making sure to end with a topping of fresh berries and a sprinkle of granola for added texture.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing touch. Serve the parfaits immediately to retain the crunchiness of the granola, or refrigerate for up to one hour if preparing in advance to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
- To maintain the granola’s crunch, add it between the layers just before serving rather than mixing it fully into the yogurt.
- Feel free to substitute or add other seasonal fruits or berries based on availability and preference.
- This recipe scales easily for larger groups—just multiply the ingredients accordingly.
