Yogurt Parfait With Honey Fruits (Print Version)
Creamy Greek yogurt layered with honey and mixed fresh fruits for a quick, wholesome breakfast or snack ready in 10 minutes.
# What You'll Need:
→ Dairy
01 - 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
→ Sweeteners
02 - 4 tablespoons honey
→ Fruits
03 - 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
04 - 1 cup blueberries
05 - 1 cup kiwi, peeled and diced
06 - 1 banana, sliced
→ Crunchy Layer
07 - 1/2 cup gluten-free granola
→ Garnish
08 - Fresh mint leaves
# How to Make It:
01 - Wash all fruits thoroughly. Hull and slice the strawberries, peel and dice the kiwi, and slice the banana into rounds. Set aside.
02 - Place four clear parfait glasses or bowls on your work surface. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt into the bottom of each glass, spreading evenly.
03 - Drizzle approximately 1 teaspoon of honey over the yogurt layer in each glass.
04 - Arrange a generous layer of mixed fruits over the honey, combining strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and banana in each glass.
05 - Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of gluten-free granola over the fruit layer in each glass for added texture and crunch.
06 - Repeat the layering process with remaining yogurt, honey, fruits, and granola until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of fruit and a final drizzle of honey.
07 - Top each parfait with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately to maintain the granola's crunch.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- It takes ten minutes from fridge to table and looks like something from a cafe window display.
- The layers stay surprisingly satisfying when you get the yogurt to fruit ratio right, somewhere around equal parts creamy and fresh.
02 -
- Wait to add granola until just before serving or it turns soggy and defeats the whole purpose of having a crunchy layer.
- Pat the washed fruit dry with a paper towel before slicing because excess water dilutes the yogurt and makes the bottom of the glass watery.
03 -
- Let the yogurt sit out for five minutes before layering so it spreads more smoothly and you get cleaner, more defined layers in the glass.
- Always finish with honey on top rather than granola because it acts like glue holding the final fruit pieces in place and looks beautiful.
