Servings: 5
Ingredients
- 1 pound strawberries- washed, hulled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt, I used whole milk
- 1 tablespoon honey (can use more or less depending on sweetness)
- ⅓ cup blueberries, washed
- 1 cup granola
Instructions
- Wash, hull and slice the strawberries. Add them to a bowl and sprinkle with sugar and a teaspoon of lemon juice. Let the berries macerate to draw the juices out while preparing the other ingredients. *See notes
- Place a few spoonfuls of yogurt in the bottom of each parfait glass. Drizzle with a bit of honey.
- Spoon a few strawberries over the yogurt and sprinkle in a few blueberries.
- Next add a layer of granola. Repeat the layers until all of the cups are filled.
- Serve right away or cover with an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. The granola will soften over time.
Notes
Macerating the strawberries is completely optional. I love how it draws out the juices and makes the berries sweet and syrupy but if you are short on time you can skip this step.
