Add granola: Sprinkle a layer of granola over the yogurt.
Add berries: Place a layer of mixed berries on top of the granola.

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving for a chilled treat.
Chef's Tips
- Yogurt Choice: Use plain Greek yogurt for a protein-rich option or flavored yogurt for extra sweetness.
- Granola Variations: Try different granola flavors like honey, almond, or chocolate for variety.
- Fruit Options: Substitute berries with sliced bananas, mango, or peaches based on season and preference.
- Make Ahead: Assemble the parfait the night before for a quick breakfast, but add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.
- Sweetener Alternatives: Replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option.
