Healthy yogurt parfaits recipe
Yogurt parfaits demonstrate how simple it is to have a scrumptious and healthy breakfast. Even though I still like full breakfasts with bacon, eggs, toast, coffee, and the rest, there are certain days when I simply don’t have the time. You won’t ever have to skip breakfast again thanks to this really simple recipe. I adore how the tart, creamy yogurt counteracts the sweetness of the strawberries. With coconut flakes for more texture, the granola offers more crunch and fiber. You can add this recipe into your breakfast meal prep rotation if your week is going to be really busy. Just grab what you need and head out the door! Excellent for breakfast, and also great for a dessert or a snack!
What are parfaits?
The French-made frozen treat that arose to the parfait we know today. It was developed by the French by freezing a custard-like purée made of egg, cream, syrup, and sugar.
In the American version, a tall, clear glass is used to serve layers of cream, fruit, cake, and other ingredients. Whipping cream is typically used to decorate the dessert. I devised a healthy dish using the same stunning, colorful layers.
