Ingredients
Organic vanilla yogurt
Fresh or frozen-and-defrosted berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
Granola (e.g., Organic Dark Chocolate Almond Granola from Cascadian Farms)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Ingredients: If you’re using frozen berries, defrost them by letting them sit at room temperature for a few minutes or in the microwave for a few seconds. If you’re using fresh berries, simply rinse and pat them dry.
-
Layer the Parfaits: In your choice of cups or bowls, start by adding a layer of organic vanilla yogurt to the bottom.
-
Add the Berries: Next, add a layer of fresh or defrosted berries on top of the yogurt. You can use any combination of berries, such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries.
-
Top with Granola: Sprinkle a generous layer of granola on top of the berries for some crunch. Repeat the layering process if you’re making multiple layers in each parfait.
-
Serve: Serve the parfaits immediately for the best texture, or chill them for a few minutes in the refrigerator before serving.
Notes
Swap the Yogurt: For a dairy-free option, use coconut yogurt, almond yogurt, or any plant-based yogurt alternative.
Use Different Fruits: Besides berries, try sliced bananas, mango chunks, kiwi, or any of your favorite fruits.
Add Sweeteners: If you prefer your parfaits sweeter, drizzle a bit of honey, maple syrup, or agave over the yogurt.
Include Nuts: For added crunch and protein, sprinkle chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, or pistachios on top.
Add a Dash of Spices: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth and flavor.
