Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed berries
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup coconut granola
- Honey for drizzling
Instructions
- Begin by washing the mixed berries thoroughly under cold running water. Gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, take the Greek yogurt and stir it gently to make it smooth and creamy. This will help it mix better with the other ingredients.
- Prepare serving glasses or bowls for assembling the parfaits. You can use clear glasses to showcase the beautiful layers of berries, yogurt, and granola.
- Start by adding a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom of each glass, approximately 1/4 cup per serving. Use a spoon to spread it evenly across the bottom.
- Next, add a layer of mixed berries on top of the yogurt. Aim for about 1/4 cup of berries per serving, distributing them evenly among the glasses.
- Sprinkle a layer of coconut granola over the berries, using about 2 tablespoons per serving. This will add a delightful crunch to your parfaits.
- Repeat the layers by adding another scoop of Greek yogurt, followed by more mixed berries and another sprinkle of coconut granola, until the glasses are filled. You can create 2-3 layers depending on the size of your glasses.
- Finish off each parfait with a final drizzle of honey on top for added sweetness and flavor. Adjust the amount of honey to your taste preference.
- Serve the berry parfaits immediately for the best texture and flavor, or refrigerate them for a short time if you prefer them chilled. Enjoy your delicious and healthy dessert!
