Ingredients
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt (0% fat)
  • 1/2 cup Mixed Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/4 cup Granola (low sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)

Layering the Parfait

In a glass or bowl, start with a layer of Greek yogurt. This forms the base of your parfait.

Adding Berries

Next, add a layer of mixed berries. Distribute them evenly over the yogurt layer. The berries provide natural sweetness and antioxidants.

Granola Crunch

Sprinkle a layer of granola over the berries. The granola adds a satisfying crunch and texture to the parfait.

Repeating Layers (Optional)

Repeat the layers of yogurt, berries, and granola until the glass or bowl is full. You can adjust the amount of each ingredient to your preference.

Sweeten (Optional)

Drizzle with honey or maple syrup, if desired. This step is optional and depends on your sweetness preference.

Enjoy Immediately

Enjoy your delicious and healthy yogurt parfait immediately! It's best served fresh to maintain the texture of the granola.

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 yogurt?

    Yes, you can use different types of yogurt, but Greek yogurt is recommended for its high protein content and thick texture. Choose a low-fat or non-fat option to keep the calorie count down.
  • Can I make this ahead of time?

    It's best to assemble the parfait just before serving to prevent the granola from becoming soggy. However, you can prepare the ingredients ahead of time and store them separately.
