Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt unsweetened, full-fat or reduced-fat
  • 1 cup granola your preferred crunchy variety
  • 1 cup mixed berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • 2 tbsp honey optional, for drizzling

Equipment

  • 4 glass jars or cups
  • 2 small bowls
  • Measuring spoons
  • spoons or small spatula

Method
 

  1. Prepare ingredients by washing and chopping berries if necessary. Measure out the yogurt, granola, and berries separately using measuring spoons and bowls.
  2. Distribute 1/4 cup of yogurt evenly into the bottom of each glass jar using a small spoon or spatula, spreading it into a smooth layer.
  3. Add a layer of 2 tablespoons of granola over the yogurt in each jar, pressing gently to create a compact layer with some visible crunch.
  4. Spoon a layer of mixed berries on top of the granola, filling the jar about halfway, creating a colorful, juicy layer.
  5. Repeat the layering process by adding another 1/4 cup of yogurt, followed by granola, and a final topping of berries, ensuring the jars are filled to the top.
  6. If desired, drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the top of each parfait for added sweetness. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for later consumption.

Notes

Layer the ingredients just before serving for maximum crunch. Feel free to swap berries or add nuts for variation.
