Ingredients
- 2 cups yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1/2 cup granola
- 2 tbsp honey
- Mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Wash the mixed berries thoroughly under cool running water. Pat them dry gently with a clean paper towel.
- If using larger berries like strawberries, slice them into bite-sized pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the parfait.
- Select two clear glass serving cups or parfait glasses to showcase the beautiful layers of the dessert.
- Begin layering by adding a generous spoonful of yogurt as the first base layer, spreading it evenly across the bottom of each glass.
- Sprinkle a portion of mixed berries directly onto the yogurt layer, creating a colorful fruit section.
- Drizzle a small amount of honey over the berries to enhance their natural sweetness.
- Add a layer of crunchy granola on top of the berries, ensuring an even distribution for consistent texture.
- Repeat the layering process: yogurt, berries, honey, and granola until the glass is nearly full.
- For the final touch, garnish the top with a few whole berries and a small sprig of fresh mint leaves.
- Serve immediately to maintain the granola's crispness and enjoy the refreshing, nutritious parfait.
