Fresh & Fruity Breakfast!
Who says you can’t have cake for breakfast? Breakfast parfaits taste and look like little decadent desserts but have layers of nutritious berries and yogurt. We add in chocolate flavor with either layer of chocolate granola or chocolate muffins (homemade or Garden Lites veggie-based muffins)! No-cook, no-bake, and easy to make ahead of time! No fancy parfait glasses? Use any clear cups or small mason jars to see the layers!
What’s in a Strawberry Parfait?
YOGURT: Vanilla Greek yogurt is thicker and firmer but your favorite yogurt can be used in this recipe. Get creative with other flavors of yogurt-like strawberry, banana, or mix and match them all! STRAWBERRY SAUCE: Of course, you can use sliced berries but we love to make a quick strawberry sauce so it soaks into the yogurt and granola layers. Try any jewel-toned fruits like strawberries, blueberries, cherries, raspberries, and even rhubarb to create a signature sauce. Double up the sauce, it can be enjoyed on everything from ice cream to waffles. FILLING: Layer with chocolate granola (or another granola variety) or chocolate muffins. If you’re looking for some extra nutrition, try veggie-based muffins like Garden Lites. TOPPING: Whipped cream is always a treat but can be switched out for other tasty toppings like chocolate curls, candied pecans, and some fresh fruit.
How to Make a Strawberry Parfait
Storing Parfaits
Make parfaits the night before and cover them with plastic wrap. Just before serving, top with whipped cream if desired. Keep leftover strawberry parfaits covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Serve individually or scoop out leftovers and spread them in a casserole dish. Add fresh whipped cream and desired toppings and serve.
