1/2 cup granola (homemade or store-bought)
1/4 cup mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans)
2 tablespoons mixed seeds (chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds)
1/2 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
If the coconut yogurt isn’t pre-sweetened and you prefer it sweeter, mix in honey or maple syrup to taste.
Chop the mixed nuts into smaller pieces for easier layering.
Assemble the Parfait:
Start by layering the bottom of serving glasses or bowls with a spoonful of coconut yogurt.
Sprinkle a layer of granola over the yogurt. This adds a delightful crunch.
Add a layer of mixed nuts and seeds on top of the granola.
Repeat the Layers:
Add another layer of coconut yogurt on top of the nuts and seeds.
Scatter a few fresh berries over the yogurt layer.
Final Layers:
Top the berries with another layer of coconut yogurt.
Finish with a final sprinkle of granola, nuts, seeds, and fresh berries.
Garnish and Serve:
Optionally, garnish with shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.

Feel free to customize the parfait by adding sliced bananas, diced mangoes, or any other fruits you prefer.
For added sweetness, drizzle a bit more honey or maple syrup between the layers or on top.
Make it ahead! Prepare the parfait in advance and store it in the refrigerator, but add the granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.
