A refreshing and healthy Greek Yogurt Berry Parfait, featuring layers of creamy Greek yogurt, mixed berries, and crunchy granola, lightly sweetened with honey and garnished with fresh mint leaves. Perfect for a quick breakfast, snack, or light dessert.

Ingredients

Parfait Base

  • 2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)

Fruit Layer

  • 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries; fresh or frozen)

Crunch and Sweetener

  • 1 cup granola
  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)

Garnish

  • Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the berries: Rinse and dry fresh berries thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly at room temperature for easier layering.
  2. Layer the parfait: In a glass or bowl, start by adding a layer of Greek yogurt as the base to create a creamy foundation.
  3. Add berries and granola: Top the yogurt layer with a generous portion of mixed berries, followed by a sprinkle of granola to add a crunchy texture.
  4. Repeat layers: Continue layering yogurt, berries, and granola until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of berries and granola on top for a visually appealing presentation.
  5. Sweeten and garnish: Drizzle honey evenly over the top layer if desired for extra sweetness. Garnish with fresh mint leaves to add a refreshing aroma and color contrast.
  6. Serve immediately: Enjoy the parfait right away to maintain the granola’s crunch and the freshness of the berries.

Notes

  • Use plain Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor or flavored varieties for added sweetness.
  • Fresh berries are preferred for the best texture, but frozen berries work well if thawed properly.
  • Honey is optional; you can substitute with maple syrup or omit sweeteners altogether for a low-sugar version.
  • The parfait can be prepared in advance but add the granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.
  • For a nut-free option, choose granola without nuts or substitute with toasted oats.
