Ingredients
Yogurt Mixture
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, more as a drizzle)
Layers
- 1/4 cup berries (or any other fruit cut into small 1-inch chunks)
- 1/4 cup homemade granola or store-bought granola
Instructions
- Sweeten the Yogurt: If using a sweetener, mix the honey or maple syrup with the Greek yogurt in a small bowl until fully combined, ensuring uniform sweetness throughout.
- Assemble the Parfait: Start by placing half of the yogurt mixture at the bottom of a mason jar or bowl. Add half of the berries and half of the granola on top, then repeat by layering the remaining yogurt, berries, and granola.
- Finish and Serve: Optionally drizzle additional honey over the top for extra sweetness. Serve the parfait immediately to enjoy the fresh textures and flavors.
Notes
- You can substitute berries with other fruits such as chopped apples, peaches, or bananas.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup.
- Granola can be homemade or store-bought; adjust quantity to your preference for crunchiness.
- Serve immediately to maintain the crunchy texture of the granola, or refrigerate briefly but anticipate softer granola.
- This recipe is customizable; add nuts or seeds for extra protein and texture.
