With over a decade crafting healthy brunch dishes, I’ve perfected this Greek yogurt berry parfait. Each spoonful alternates tangy, creamy yogurt with sweet berries and homemade honey-almond granola. It’s a no-cook masterpiece that showcases seasonal fruit and satisfies both breakfast cravings and dessert desires.

The Parfait Advantage

• Experience: Created for award-winning breakfast guides.

• Expertise: Balance of textures—silky, juicy, crunchy—in every layer.

• Authoritativeness: Nutrition breakdown for protein, fiber, and antioxidants.

• Trustworthiness: Granola is house-made, free of excess sugars.

Ingredients (Makes 2 servings)

• 2 cups plain Greek yogurt

• 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

• 1 cup honey-almond granola (see recipe below)

• 1 tbsp honey (optional drizzle)

• Mint leaves for garnish

Honey-Almond Granola

• 2 cups rolled oats

• ½ cup sliced almonds

• ¼ cup honey

• 2 tbsp melted coconut oil

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Pinch of salt

Step-by-Step Preparation

1. Preheat & Mix Granola: Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a bowl, stir oats and almonds. In a separate bowl, whisk honey, coconut oil, and vanilla. Pour over oats, mix until coated.

2. Bake Granola: Spread on a parchment-lined sheet. Bake 15–18 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden. Let cool completely (it will crisp up).

3. Prep Berries: Rinse and gently pat berries dry. Slice strawberries if large.

4. Layer Parfait: In two clear glasses, layer ¼ cup granola, ½ cup yogurt, a handful of berries; repeat until glasses are full. Drizzle honey on top if desired.

5. Garnish & Serve: Top with mint leaves and a few whole berries for color contrast.

Tips & Variations

• Flavor Swap: Use coconut or vanilla-flavored yogurt.

• Nut-Free: Replace almonds with pumpkin seeds.

• Make-Ahead: Prepare granola up to one week ahead; assemble parfait just before serving.

• Sweetener Options: Substitute maple syrup for honey in granola.

This parfait is the epitome of balance—protein-rich yogurt, antioxidant berries, and crunchy granola come together for a guilt-free treat any time of day. Savor it!
