Chef's Note

This parfait is perfect for busy students! Make a larger batch of granola on the weekend (3-4x the recipe) to save time during the week. You can also portion the yogurt into small containers and top with the granola and fruit right before eating to prevent sogginess. For even more savings, buy yogurt in large tubs rather than individual containers, and look for seasonal or frozen fruits that are more budget-friendly.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds

  • 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts

  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 pinch salt

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1/2 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)

  • 1/2 medium banana

  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (for drizzling)

Instructions
  • 1

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

  • 2

    In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats, 2 tablespoons sliced almonds, 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts, and 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut.

  • 3

    In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 tablespoon honey and 1 teaspoon coconut oil. Microwave for 15-20 seconds until melted.

  • 4

    Add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the honey mixture and stir well.

  • 5

    Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated.

  • 6

    Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

  • 7

    Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.

  • 8

    Remove from the oven and let cool completely (the granola will crisp up as it cools).

  • 9

    While the granola cools, wash and slice 1/2 cup of fresh berries and slice 1/2 banana.

  • 10

    To assemble the parfait, spoon 1/3 of the Greek yogurt into a glass or jar, followed by a layer of fruit and a sprinkle of granola.

  • 11

    Repeat the layers twice more, ending with granola on top.

  • 12

    Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup if desired.

  • 13

    For meal prep: Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Prepare individual containers with yogurt, then store fruit and granola separately to add just before eating.
