Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl medium
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 glass jars or cups

Ingredients
  

Parfait Base

  • 2 cups Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh cherries pitted and halved
  • 1 cup granola

Sweetener

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Wash the cherries thoroughly, pit them, and slice them in half. Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt with honey and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Serving

  • In a glass jar or cup, add a layer of Greek yogurt, followed by a layer of fresh cherries, and a layer of granola. Repeat the layers until the jar is filled, ending with a dollop of yogurt.
  • Top the final layer with a cherry and a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness. Serve immediately for the best texture.

Storage

  • Cover the parfait with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to two days. Note that the granola will soften over time.

Notes

Pro Tips: Use the freshest cherries you can find for the best taste. Consider using homemade granola for a personal touch.
Ingredient Substitutions: Substitute honey with agave syrup or maple syrup for a vegan option. Use almond or coconut yogurt for a dairy-free version.
How to Serve: Serve immediately after assembly to enjoy the crunchy texture of the granola.
Storage & Freshness: Store in the refrigerator for up to two days. Granola will lose its crunch if stored for longer.
Make-Ahead Tips: Prepare the yogurt and cherries in advance, and store them separately until ready to assemble.
