Ingredients
Ingredients
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt (plain, high-protein)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- ¼ cup mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries), cut into bite-sized pieces
- ¼ cup granola
Instructions
- Sweeten the Yogurt: If you prefer a sweeter parfait, stir the teaspoon of maple syrup or honey into the Greek yogurt until fully incorporated to enhance its natural creaminess and flavor.
- Layer the First Half: Spoon half of the yogurt (about ¼ cup) into the bottom of a mason jar or cup to form the base layer for your parfait.
- Add Berries and Granola: Evenly distribute half of the mixed berries over the yogurt layer, then sprinkle half of the granola on top to add crunch and texture.
- Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering by adding the remaining yogurt followed by the remaining berries and granola. Your Greek Yogurt Parfait is now ready to serve and enjoy immediately!
Notes
- You can substitute mixed berries with any fresh fruit of your choice, such as diced mango, peaches, or banana slices.
- For added richness, consider using Greek yogurt with 2% or full-fat content.
- To keep granola crunchy, add it just before serving if preparing the parfait ahead of time.
- This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for more servings.
- Choose gluten-free granola if you require a gluten-free option.
