10-Minute Berry Yogurt Parfait
A quick and healthy snack featuring layers of creamy Greek yogurt, fresh berries, and a sprinkle of granola for added crunch. Perfect for a light breakfast or afternoon treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt (plain, non-fat)
- 1 cup Mixed Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons Granola (low-sugar)
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
Prepare the Yogurt
Spoon the Greek yogurt into a glass or small bowl. Make sure it's evenly distributed at the bottom to create a base for your parfait.
Layer the Berries
Wash and gently pat dry your mixed berries. Arrange half of the berries over the layer of yogurt. Try to distribute them evenly for a visually appealing parfait.
Add Granola
Sprinkle half of the granola over the berries. This adds a satisfying crunch and a touch of sweetness. Be mindful of the quantity to keep the sugar content in check if you're using store-bought granola.
Repeat Layers (Optional)
If desired, repeat the layers with the remaining yogurt, berries, and granola. This creates a taller and more substantial parfait. If you want to add a touch of sweeteness, add honey.
Enjoy Immediately
Serve immediately for the best texture. The granola will soften if left to sit for too long. Enjoy your healthy and delicious berry yogurt parfait!

FAQ
-
Can I use frozen berries?
Yes, you can use frozen berries. Just let them thaw slightly before adding them to the parfait. -
Can I use different types of fruit?
Absolutely! Feel free to use any fruit you enjoy, such as peaches, bananas, or kiwi. -
Can I make this ahead of time?
It's best to assemble the parfait just before serving to prevent the granola from becoming soggy. You can prepare the ingredients (wash berries, measure granola) ahead of time.
