Yogurt Parfait
Description
The recipe involves dicing strawberries into smaller pieces and layering them in clear cups with vanilla or Greek yogurt, fresh blackberries, blueberries, and granola. The layering repeats to showcase the textures and colors through the transparent cups. After assembly, the parfaits should be refrigerated until ready to serve.
This parfait’s texture contrasts creamy and tart yogurt with the sweetness and juiciness of fresh berries, balanced by the crunch of granola. The flavors are fresh and mildly sweet, making it suitable as a breakfast, snack, or light dessert.
The recipe allows flexibility with yogurt type and granola choice depending on preference. It’s ideal to select fruits in season for freshness and best cost. The granola adds a pleasant crispiness that softens over time when stored in the fridge with the yogurt and berries.
Leftovers can be kept covered in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days but expect some softening of the granola and fruit over time. Preparing the fruit a day ahead and storing it refrigerated will help save time on assembly day.
