Fresh raspberries
1 cup
Granola
1 cup
Honey
2 tablespoons
Mint leaves
for garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. In a clear glass or bowl, layer 1 cup of Icelandic yogurt at the bottom to create a creamy base.
  2. Add a layer of fresh strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries on top of the yogurt, distributing them evenly for a burst of flavor in every bite.
  3. Sprinkle 1/3 cup of granola over the berries, introducing a satisfying crunch that contrasts the smooth yogurt.
  4. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the granola to enhance the sweetness of the layers.
  5. Repeat the layering process with the remaining ingredients: start with the yogurt, followed by the berries, granola, and honey, until all ingredients are used.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra kick of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of vanilla extract to the yogurt before layering.
  • 💡 Feel free to swap out the berries for your favorite fruits, such as peaches or bananas, depending on the season.
  • 💡 To make this parfait vegan, replace Icelandic yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative and use maple syrup instead of honey.
