This refreshing Fruit and Yogurt Parfait is a simple, nutritious treat combining creamy yogurt with mixed berries, a touch of maple syrup, crunchy granola, and optional coconut flakes. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a healthy dessert, it requires no cooking and can be prepared ahead for convenient enjoyment.

Ingredients

Base

  • 3/4 cup yogurt (plant-based, plain yogurt, or Greek yogurt)

Fruit

  • 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)

Sweetener

  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon granola
  • 1/2 tablespoon coconut flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit: Wash the mixed berries thoroughly. If some berries are large, chop them into smaller pieces to ensure even layering and ease of eating.
  2. Layer yogurt: Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of yogurt into a mason jar or serving glass, creating the first layer of the parfait.
  3. Add fruit: Add half of the chopped mixed berries on top of the initial yogurt layer.
  4. Repeat yogurt layer: Add the remaining yogurt over the fruit to create a creamy middle layer.
  5. Top and garnish: Place the rest of the mixed berries on top, then sprinkle with granola and drizzle with maple syrup. Optionally, add coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
  6. Store: Seal the jars with lids and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days to allow flavors to meld and keep fresh.
  7. Serve: When ready to eat, remove from the fridge, gently mix the layers if desired, and enjoy your parfait chilled.

Notes

  • Use plant-based yogurt to make this recipe vegan-friendly.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup according to taste.
  • Granola adds crunch but can be omitted or replaced with nuts or seeds for different textures.
  • Chop larger berries so you get balanced bites of fruit and yogurt in every spoonful.
  • Prepare parfaits ahead of time for easy grab-and-go breakfasts or snacks.
  • Store in airtight containers to maintain freshness and prevent sogginess.
