Refreshing layers of creamy yogurt, honey-drizzled fresh fruits, and optional granola crunch.
# What You Need:
→ Dairy
01 - 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
→ Sweeteners
02 - 4 tablespoons honey
→ Fruits
03 - 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
04 - 1 cup blueberries

06 - 1 banana, sliced
→ Crunchy Layer
07 - 1/2 cup gluten-free granola

# Directions:
01 - Wash, peel, and slice all fruits. Hull and slice the strawberries, peel and dice the kiwi, and slice the banana. Keep the blueberries whole.
02 - Place 2 to 3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt into the bottom of four clear parfait glasses or bowls to form the first layer.
03 - Drizzle approximately 1 teaspoon of honey evenly over the yogurt layer in each glass.
04 - Arrange a generous layer of mixed fruits including strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and banana over the honey-drizzled yogurt.
05 - Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of gluten-free granola over the fruit layer in each glass for added texture.
06 - Repeat the layering process with yogurt, honey, fruit, and granola until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of fruit and a final drizzle of honey.
07 - Top each parfait with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately to maintain optimal texture and freshness.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- There is no cooking involved, which means the kitchen stays cool and you get to eat almost immediately.
- The layers turn everyday breakfast ingredients into something that feels like a treat from a cafe.
02 -
- Sliced bananas will brown if they sit too long, so add them last minute if you are assembling parfaits ahead for a crowd.
- Wet fruit sliding around in the glass usually means the berries were not patted dry after washing.
03 -
- Swapping in maple syrup for honey and using a plant based yogurt turns this entirely vegan without changing the spirit of the recipe at all.
- Toasting your granola in a dry pan for two minutes before layering wakes up flavors you did not even know were hiding in there.
