What you will need

This recipe uses 7 simple ingredients that you can find at any grocery store:

  • 2 cups plain coconut yogurt
  • 0.5 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
  • 0.5 cup fresh raspberries
  • 0.75 cup granola
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds

Step by step instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients

Wash and dry all the fresh berries. Slice the strawberries and set all the berries aside in separate small bowls for easy layering.

Step 2: First Layer

Spoon half of the coconut yogurt evenly into the bottoms of two tall glasses or mason jars.

Step 3: Add Berries and Granola

Add a layer of mixed berries over the yogurt, then sprinkle a layer of granola over the berries.

Step 4: Repeat Layers

Add another layer of the remaining coconut yogurt, followed by the remaining berries and granola on top.

Step 5: Finish and Serve

Drizzle each parfait with maple syrup and sprinkle chia seeds over the top. Serve immediately so the granola stays crunchy.
