Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1.5 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 medium apple (grated)
- 1 medium banana (sliced)
- 1 cup mixed fresh berries (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, milk, and chia seeds. Stir well and let sit for 10 minutes to allow the oats and chia seeds to soften and absorb the liquid.
Peel and grate the apple, and then fold it into the oat mixture.
In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract (if using) until smooth and creamy.
Set out two glasses or jars to assemble the parfaits. Begin by adding a layer of the oat mixture at the bottom of each container.
Add a layer of sliced banana on top of the oats, followed by a layer of Greek yogurt.
Next, add a layer of mixed fresh berries, then sprinkle some chopped nuts over the berries.
Repeat the layers as needed until the jars are filled, finishing with a garnish of berries and nuts on the top layer.
Serve immediately for a fresh breakfast or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours for a make-ahead option.
