Print Recipe

A quick, nourishing, and protein-packed parfait featuring creamy Greek yogurt, mixed berries, and crunchy granola, perfect for busy mornings or a wholesome snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (300 g) mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries), fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup (100 g) granola (choose crunchy, nutty, minimal added sugar)
  • 2 tablespoons (20 g) chia seeds (optional)
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) slivered almonds or walnuts (optional)
  • Zest of 1 lemon (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness if needed.
  2. Rinse fresh berries under cold water and drain well. Slice strawberries if large. For frozen berries, thaw slightly and drain excess liquid.
  3. Toast slivered almonds or walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant and lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes. Stir often and let cool.
  4. Layer the parfait starting with a few spoonfuls of yogurt mixture at the bottom of jars or glasses. Add a layer of mixed berries, then sprinkle granola and chia seeds if using. Repeat layers until container is filled, finishing with berries and nuts on top.
  5. Grate lemon zest over the top and drizzle a bit more honey if desired. Serve immediately or chill up to 2 hours for flavors to meld.

Notes

Keep granola and nuts separate if preparing ahead to avoid sogginess. Use thick Greek yogurt for best texture. Drain frozen berries well before layering. Toast nuts for extra crunch and aroma. Lemon zest adds a fresh zing but is optional.
