Berry Yogurt Parfait Breakfast Trifle Recipe
Description
This trifle recipe whips plain nonfat Greek yogurt with maple syrup and freshly grated nutmeg until light and airy. The mixture is layered in a glass dish alternating with homemade granola and a mix of fresh raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries. The parfait highlights natural berry flavors complemented by the mellow sweetness and warmth of nutmeg in the yogurt, while the granola adds crunch and substance.
The trifle is served immediately but can be refrigerated and brought back to room temperature before serving. It pairs well as a nutrient-rich start to the day, offering protein from yogurt and antioxidants from fresh berries balanced by natural sweetness and texture from granola.
