Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free oats, almonds, and pumpkin seeds.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the honey and coconut oil together, stirring until well mixed.
Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract, salt, and cinnamon, stirring to combine.
Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is coated.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown.
Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet; it will harden as it cools.
To assemble the parfait, place a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom of each serving glass or bowl.
Add a layer of the prepared gluten-free granola on top of the yogurt.
Top with a mix of fresh strawberries, blueberries, and banana slices.
Repeat the layers until the serving glass or bowl is filled to your liking.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour if you prefer a chilled parfait.
