This Greek Yogurt Berry Parfait is the ideal breakfast for busy mornings: protein-rich yogurt, antioxidant-packed berries, and crunchy, lightly sweet granola. As a veteran health-food blogger, I’ve balanced flavors and textures so every spoonful feels decadent yet nourishing.

Ingredients

• Granola:

  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats

  • ½ cup sliced almonds

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup

  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Pinch of salt

• Parfait Layers:

  • 3 cups plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced

  • 1 cup blueberries

  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)

Preparation Steps

1. Make the granola.

   • Preheat oven to 325 °F (160 °C). In a bowl, combine oats, almonds, chia seeds, salt, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla. Mix until evenly coated.

   • Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 15–18 minutes, stirring once, until golden. Cool completely—granola crisps as it cools.

2. Assemble parfaits.

   • In tall glasses, spoon 2 Tbsp yogurt, followed by a layer of granola, strawberries, and blueberries. Repeat to fill glasses. Drizzle honey over the top if you like extra sweetness.

3. Serve & store.

   • Enjoy immediately for maximum crunch. Store leftover granola in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks; yogurt and berries can be prepped in advance and layered just before eating.

Pro Tips

• Flavor variations: Swap almonds for pecans or add a pinch of cinnamon to granola.

• Dairy-free option: Use coconut or almond-milk yogurt.

• Protein boost: Stir in a scoop of vanilla protein powder into yogurt.

This parfait delivers creamy, crunchy, and fruity layers in every bite—a breakfast that feels indulgent yet keeps you full until lunch.
