  • 3 cups vanilla yogurt or your favorite flavor

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Berries - Start by washing your fresh berries thoroughly. If you're using strawberries, dice them into small pieces. Set aside the prepared berries in a bowl.
  2. Step 2: Layer the Ingredients - In your serving glass or bowl, add a layer of yogurt at the bottom. Aim for about half a cup, depending on the size of your container.
  3. Step 3: Add the Fresh Berries - Next, add a layer of mixed berries over the yogurt. You can be generous here—this is where a lot of the flavor comes from!
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle Granola - After your berry layer, sprinkle a layer of granola over the top. The crunch is essential for that perfect texture contrast.
  5. Step 5: Repeat the Layers - Repeat the layering process until your glass is filled to the top. Typically, two or three layers work best, but feel free to customize it based on your preferences.
  6. Step 6: Drizzle with Sweetener - If you like a little extra sweetness, drizzle some honey or pure maple syrup over the top of your parfait.
  7. Step 7: Serve Immediately - Your Yogurt Parfait is now complete! Serve it immediately and enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures.

Notes

  • Store components separately for freshness until serving.
  • Experiment with different fruits and yogurt flavors for variety.
  • Use gluten-free granola for a gluten-free option.
