A quick and easy Greek yogurt parfait recipe perfect for meal prep, combining creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and fresh berries for a fresh, nourishing breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (150 g) granola
  • 2 cups (300 g) fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
  • 2 tablespoons (20 g) chia seeds (optional)
  • ¼ cup (30 g) almonds or walnuts, roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Yogurt Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups (480 ml) of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of honey, and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  2. Prep the Fruit: Rinse and pat dry 2 cups (300 g) of fresh berries. If using strawberries, hull and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  3. Layer the Parfaits: In each mason jar or container, add a few spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture as the first layer. Follow with a handful of berries, then a sprinkle of chia seeds and nuts if using. Repeat to fill jars about three-quarters full, leaving room at the top for granola.
  4. Add Granola Just Before Serving: To keep it crunchy, store the granola separately and sprinkle it on top right before eating. You can pack it in a small container or baggie alongside your parfait.
  5. Seal and Refrigerate: Cover the jars tightly and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Notes

Keep granola separate until just before eating to maintain crunchiness. Use full-fat Greek yogurt for best texture. Frozen berries can be used but should be thawed and drained to avoid sogginess. For dairy-free, substitute with coconut or almond milk yogurt and use maple syrup instead of honey. Prepare components separately for faster assembly in the morning.
