Ingredients
- 4 cups plain Greek yogurt (2% or whole)
- 2 cups granola
- 2 cups mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- 1/4 cup honey, plus more to taste
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Sweeten the yogurt. Stir the Greek yogurt with the honey, chia seeds, and vanilla until smooth.
- Prep the fruit. Wash and dry the berries; halve any large strawberries.
- Layer the jars. In each of 4 jars or containers, layer 1/2 cup yogurt, 1/4 cup granola, and 1/4 cup berries. Repeat the layers once.
- Seal. Top with a few extra berries, seal tightly, and refrigerate.
- Store. Keeps 4 days refrigerated. The granola softens slightly — that is part of the charm.
- Serve. Eat cold, straight from the jar, with an extra drizzle of honey if you like.
💡 Parfait smarts
Layer granola between yogurt — never on top for storage — so it stays a little crunchy. Dry the berries well so the yogurt does not get watery. Use full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt; nonfat can taste chalky after a few days.
Common questions
How long do they last?
4 days refrigerated in sealed jars. The granola softens over time but still tastes great.
Can I keep the granola crunchy?
Pack the granola separately in a small container and add it just before eating.
Can I use frozen berries?
Yes — thaw and drain them first so they do not water down the yogurt.
How do I add more protein?
Stir a scoop of vanilla protein powder into the yogurt, or use a high-protein Greek yogurt.
