Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 500 grams plain Greek yogurt
- 250 grams granola
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 10 leaves mint leaves
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold running water. Remove the stems and hulls using a paring knife. Slice them into thin pieces and place in a medium bowl.
Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of honey to the sliced strawberries. Gently toss to coat the strawberries evenly. Allow them to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to macerate and become slightly juicy.
In a separate bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt with the remaining 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until the yogurt is smooth and well combined.
To assemble the parfaits, take four serving glasses or bowls and begin layering the ingredients.
Start by adding a few spoonfuls of the Greek yogurt mixture at the base of each glass.
Follow with a layer of granola – approximately 2 tablespoons per glass.
Top the granola with a generous spoonful of the macerated strawberries, ensuring you include some of the flavorful juice.
Repeat the layers, starting with yogurt, then granola, and then strawberries, until the glasses are filled, finishing with strawberries on top.
Garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves for an aromatic finish.
Serve immediately for best texture, or store in the refrigerator for no more than 2 hours if preparing in advance.
