Helpful Tips
Feel free to mix and match your favorite fruits based on the season or what you have on hand. Berries, peaches, nectarines, and pineapple are all great options. For an extra protein boost, consider adding a spoonful of chia seeds or nuts between the layers. If you’re making these parfaits ahead of time, keep the granola separate and add it just before serving to maintain its crunch.
Storage Instructions
If you need to store these parfaits, cover each glass with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Remember to add the granola just before serving.
Ingredient Substitutions
For a dairy-free version, substitute the Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or any other plant-based yogurt. You can also use gluten-free granola if you need a gluten-free option.
Pairings
This vibrant fruit parfait pairs beautifully with freshly brewed coffee or a refreshing herbal tea. For an indulgent brunch, serve alongside fluffy scrambled eggs or avocado toast.
