Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Plain Greek yogurt (low sodium)
- 1 cup Mixed fresh berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Unsalted mixed nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, pecans), coarsely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
Begin by preparing the fruit. Wash and pat dry the mixed berries. Slice any larger berries such as strawberries into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir well until fully integrated and smooth.
Gently fold in the mixed fresh berries into the yogurt mixture, ensuring that the fruit is evenly distributed.
In a separate small bowl, mix the chia seeds and coarsely chopped unsalted mixed nuts.
To assemble the parfaits, take four serving glasses or bowls. Spoon a generous layer of the fruit-infused yogurt mixture into the bottom of each glass.
Sprinkle a spoonful of the chia and nut mixture over the yogurt in each glass.
Repeat the layering process with another layer of yogurt mixture followed by the chia and nut mixture until all components are used up, finishing with a final sprinkle of the chia and nut mixture on top.
Garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves for an added burst of flavor and visual appeal.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours for a chilled option.
