Yogurt Parfait Recipe

Prepare the Granola

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, honey, chopped almonds, coconut flakes, cinnamon, salt, and vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.

Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Toast the Pepitas

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add pepitas and sprinkle with salt. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until the seeds start to pop and are golden brown. Remove from heat and let cool.

Macreate the Fruit

In a medium bowl, combine mixed berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Gently toss the mixture and let it sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the berries to release their juices.

Prepare the Orange Supreme

Using a sharp knife, cut the top and bottom off the navel orange. Stand the orange upright and slice down the sides to remove the peel and pith. Cut between the membranes to release the orange segments into a bowl.

Assemble the Yogurt Parfait

In serving glasses or bowls, layer the Greek yogurt, followed by a layer of macerated fruit, a layer of granola, and a sprinkle of toasted pepitas. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of yogurt and a few orange segments on top.
