Name: Yogurt and Berry Parfaits
Total time: 15 min
Ingredients: 1 cup plain Greek yogurt; 1 tablespoon honey; 1 cup raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and/or sliced strawberries; ½ cup granola

Why This Recipe Works

These parfaits pair Greek yogurt with juicy berries and crunchy granola for distinct, balanced layers. Whisking in honey lightly sweetens the yogurt without overpowering the fruit, while the layering ensures every bite delivers a mix of creamy, fresh, and crisp textures.

Before You Begin

You can use regular yogurt in this recipe, but since it is thinner than Greek yogurt, the layers may not stay as well defined. We like the color contrast between plain (unflavored) yogurt and the fruit, but if you use sweetened or flavored yogurt, skip the honey. This recipe is highly customizable: use store-bought yogurt and granola for convenience or opt for homemade versions for more control.

Instructions

In small bowl, whisk yogurt and honey until smooth. Spoon one-quarter of the yogurt-honey mixture into each 8-ounce glass tumbler. Top with ¼ cup berries, followed by 2 tablespoons granola (see photo, “Step-by-Step: The Layered Look”).

Repeat layering process with remaining yogurt, berries, and granola. When you’re done, you should have 2 layers of yogurt, berries, and granola. Serve within 15 minutes or granola will start to become soggy.
