Sweet Peach Yogurt Parfait (Print Version)
Creamy yogurt layered with sweet peaches and crunchy granola for a refreshing treat ready in 10 minutes.
# What You Need:
→ Fruit
01 - 3 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted and sliced (or 2 cups drained canned peaches, sliced)
→ Yogurt
02 - 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or vanilla yogurt)
→ Sweetener
03 - 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
→ Crunch
04 - 1½ cups granola
→ Garnish
05 - Fresh mint leaves (optional)
# How To Make It:
01 - In a medium bowl, toss the peach slices with 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup. Let sit for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
02 - Spoon 2 tablespoons of yogurt into the bottom of each serving glass or bowl.
03 - Add a layer of sweetened peaches (about 2 tablespoons), followed by a layer of granola (about 2 tablespoons) over the yogurt.
04 - Repeat the yogurt, peach and granola layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of granola on top.
05 - Drizzle the remaining honey or maple syrup over the top and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
06 - Serve immediately to maintain the best texture and crunch.
# Handy Tips:
01 -
- The contrast of velvety yogurt against the satisfying crackle of granola is genuinely hard to stop eating.
- It assembles in ten minutes with zero heat, which means you can make it half asleep and still feel accomplished.
02 -
- Assembled parfaits wait for no one, since the granola softens within fifteen minutes and loses the crunch that makes this dish sing.
- Overripe peaches will turn mushy in the layers, so choose fruit that yields slightly when pressed but still holds its shape when sliced.
03 -
- Tossing the peaches with honey in advance draws out their natural juices and creates a thin syrup that pools into the yogurt layers beautifully.
- Slightly underlayering each glass prevents overflow when the fruit juices settle and expand into the yogurt.
