Tips
- Choose Full-Fat Greek Yogurt: For a creamier, richer texture that provides more satiety and a luxurious mouthfeel.
- Chill Your Ingredients: Cold yogurt and fresh fruits will make your parfait more refreshing and prevent premature melting.
- Layer Strategically: Use clear glasses to showcase beautiful, distinct layers. Alternate carefully for visual appeal.
- Fresh is Best: Use ripe, in-season strawberries and blueberries for maximum flavor and nutritional value.
- Granola Timing: Add granola just before serving to maintain its crunch and prevent sogginess.
- Honey Hack: Warm honey slightly for easier drizzling and better distribution.
- Make Ahead: Prepare yogurt and fruit layers in advance, but add granola just before serving for optimal texture.
