Chef's Note

For school-friendly parfaits, pack the granola separately in small containers to prevent it from getting soggy. The granola can be made in advance and stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks. For extra protein, you can add more protein powder to the yogurt mixture without significantly altering the taste.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups plain Greek yogurt

  • 4 tablespoons honey

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 2 cups rolled oats

  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds

  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil

  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup

  • 2 cups fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries)

  • 2 medium banana

  • 4 scoops whey protein powder (unflavored)

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of rolled oats, 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds, 1/4 cup of pumpkin seeds, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

  • 3

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 3 tablespoons of coconut oil with 3 tablespoons of maple syrup, stirring until combined.

  • 4

    Pour the coconut oil mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is well coated.

  • 5

    Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown.

  • 6

    Remove from the oven, add 1/3 cup of dried cranberries, and let cool completely (the granola will crisp up as it cools).

  • 7

    While the granola is baking, in a large bowl, mix 4 cups of Greek yogurt with 4 scoops of whey protein powder until smooth.

  • 8

    Add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the yogurt mixture and stir well.

  • 9

    Wash and slice 2 cups of fresh berries and 2 bananas.

  • 10

    To assemble the parfaits: divide the yogurt mixture among 4 containers (about 1 cup each).

  • 11

    Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over each portion of yogurt.

  • 12

    Top each parfait with 1/4 of the cooled granola and 1/4 of the prepared fruit.

  • 13

    For packed parfaits: layer ingredients in portable containers with granola in a separate container to add just before eating to maintain crunchiness.
