Start your morning with a simple yet delicious and nutritious breakfast that’s perfect for sharing. This Yogurt Parfait for Two layers yogurt and creamy ricotta with fresh seasonal berries and crunchy granola creating a beautiful balance of flavor, texture, and nutrition. Made with just a few simple ingredients, this parfait is as easy to prepare as it is delightful to share.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granola (NOTE 1)
- 8.5 ounces Greek yogurt
- 1.5 ounces ricotta
- 1.5 ounces blueberries
- 1.5 ounces raspberries
- 1.5 ounces strawberries chopped
Instructions
- In a trifle bowl spoon about 1/4 cup of granola to create the first layer. (NOTE 2)
- Cut the strawberries in smaller pieces and mix them with the blueberries and raspberries. Top the granola with half of the mixed berries.
- Mix the yogurt with the ricotta and spoon half of this mixture on top of the berries.
- Repeat the layers: add granola on top of the yogurt, then fruit and finish with yogurt.
- Garnish with some fresh mint.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve as quickly as possible. (NOTE 3)
Notes
- My recipe for homemade granola is here. The nutritional value of this recipe does not include the granola, as the composition vary much depends on the granola you'll use.
- If you make this recipe in 2 glasses or mason jars, divide 1/4 cup over 2 glasses.
- Granola will soak up the liquid from the berries and yogurt and will become soggy and lose its crunchiness. If you want to make the parfait the night before, I would recommend adding the granola at the moment you plan to eat the parfait.
