# Directions:
01 - Wash, peel, and slice all fruits as needed. Hull and slice the strawberries, peel and dice the kiwi, and slice the banana.
02 - In four clear parfait glasses or bowls, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt to form the base layer.
03 - Drizzle approximately 1 teaspoon of honey evenly over the yogurt layer in each glass.
04 - Arrange a generous layer of mixed fruits—strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and banana—over the honeyed yogurt.
05 - Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granola over the fruit layer in each glass for added texture, if desired.
06 - Repeat the layering process—yogurt, honey, fruits, and granola—until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of fruit and a final honey drizzle.
07 - Garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately to maintain optimal texture and freshness.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Zero cooking required, which means your kitchen stays cool and your patience stays intact.
- The layered presentation turns ordinary breakfast ingredients into something that feels genuinely special.
02 -
- If you assemble these more than an hour ahead, skip the granola until just before serving or you will end up with soggy crumbs instead of crunch.
- Plant-based yogurt works beautifully here, but choose an unsweetened one so you can control the sweetness yourself.
03 -
- Keep your yogurt in the fridge until the very last second so each layer goes in cold and firm, which makes the whole thing hold together better.
- A squeeze bottle for the honey gives you precise, beautiful drizzles without the sticky mess of a spoon.
