2 cups fresh figs, sliced

2 cups Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)

1 cup granola

2 tablespoons honey

  3. Add Figs and Granola: Add a layer of sliced figs on top of the yogurt, followed by a sprinkle of ¼ cup granola.

Notes

If you like, you can add other fruits like berries, banana slices, or peaches to the parfait for more flavor and color.

Swap out the granola for a nutty or seed-based topping if you prefer a different texture or flavor.

If you don’t want to use honey, you can drizzle maple syrup or agave nectar for a different sweetness.
