Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 0.5 cup certified gluten-free granola
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Begin by preparing your ingredients for assembly. If you are using frozen mixed berries, allow them to thaw for about 15-20 minutes at room temperature so they are easier to layer and release their juices. Ensure your certified gluten-free granola is readily accessible.
- 2
Start building your parfaits by spooning approximately half a cup of plain Greek yogurt into the bottom of each of your four serving glasses or bowls. Press the yogurt down gently to create a smooth, even base for the subsequent layers.
- 3
Add a generous layer of the mixed berries over the Greek yogurt, distributing them evenly to ensure a burst of fruity flavor in every bite. If you prefer a sweeter parfait, now is the time to drizzle about half a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup over the berries in each glass.
- 4
Sprinkle a layer of the certified gluten-free granola over the berries, adding a delightful crunch and nutty undertone. Continue layering the Greek yogurt, mixed berries, and gluten-free granola until the glasses are nearly full, finishing with a final sprinkle of granola on top for visual appeal and texture.
- 5
For an extra touch of freshness and color, garnish the top of each parfait with the chopped fresh mint leaves, if using. Serve these parfaits immediately to best enjoy the contrast between the cool, creamy yogurt, the soft berries, and the crisp granola.

Tips & Notes
- Full-fat yogurt produces a richer result; reduced-fat works fine in most recipes.
- Honey is sweeter than sugar — if substituting, use 3/4 cup honey per 1 cup sugar and reduce liquid by 1/4 cup.
- Refrigerate maple syrup after opening and use within a year.
