Ingredients
- 2 cups low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons almond extract
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup sliced almonds
- 0.25 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 0.5 teaspoons cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, honey, almond extract, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sliced almonds. Stir until the oats and almonds are well coated with the honey.
Step 3
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the granola is golden brown, stirring halfway through for even baking. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet.
Step 5
Once the granola has cooled, mix in the dried cranberries.
Step 6
While the granola is cooling, wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into bite-sized pieces.
Step 7
To assemble the parfaits, layer 1/4 cup of the low-fat Greek yogurt into the bottom of each of four glasses or jars.
Step 8
On top of the yogurt, add a layer of sliced strawberries and blueberries.
Step 9
Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of the homemade granola over the berries in each glass.
Step 10
Repeat the layers, finishing with a final drizzle of honey if desired and a few slices of fresh fruit on top for presentation.
Step 11
Serve immediately or refrigerate and enjoy later!
