Chef's Note
For the best texture, make the granola a day ahead and store in an airtight container. This allows the flavors to develop and ensures the granola stays crisp when added to the parfait. You can also customize the fruit based on seasonal availability - peaches and cherries work wonderfully in summer, while pomegranate seeds add a festive touch in winter.

2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2
In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of sliced almonds, 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup of pumpkin seeds, 2 tablespoons of chia seeds, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm 1/3 cup of honey and 3 tablespoons of coconut oil until melted and combined, about 2 minutes.
- 4
Remove the honey mixture from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- 5
Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated.
- 6
Spread the granola mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- 7
Bake for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

Allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.

In a medium bowl, mix 4 cups of Greek yogurt with 1/2 cup of vanilla protein powder until well combined.

To assemble each parfait: In a serving glass or bowl, layer 1/4 of the yogurt mixture, followed by a layer of the honey-toasted granola, and then a layer of mixed fresh fruits (blueberries, strawberries, and banana slices).
- 11
Repeat the layers once more, ending with fresh fruit on top.
- 12
Drizzle each parfait with 1 tablespoon of honey before serving.
