Ingredients

Scale

Yogurt Layer

2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt (divided)

Fruit Layer

1 cup fresh mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
3 tablespoons Carnation Breakfast Essentials® Powder in French Vanilla

Crunchy Layer

1 cup granola (divided)

Syrup Layer

4 tablespoons honey (divided)

Instructions

Prepare berry mixture: In a medium bowl, gently combine the fresh mixed berries with the Carnation Breakfast Essentials® Powder in French Vanilla powder. This enhances the berries with a creamy flavor and added nutrition. Set this bowl aside to let the flavors meld.
First layer of yogurt: Spread half a cup (½ cup) of vanilla Greek yogurt evenly onto the bottom of two glasses or small bowls. This smooth base forms the foundation of your parfait.
Add granola and berries: On top of the yogurt, add a quarter cup (¼ cup) of granola for crunch, followed by one tablespoon (1 tbsp) of honey drizzled evenly over it. Then, add a quarter cup (¼ cup) of the prepared mixed berry and protein powder mixture as the fruity and flavorful layer.
Repeat layering: Repeat the layering process by adding another ½ cup of yogurt on top, then ¼ cup granola, 1 tablespoon honey, and ¼ cup of the berry mixture in each glass. This double layering creates a delightful taste and textural contrast with every bite.
Serve immediately: Once assembled, serve the parfaits immediately to enjoy the freshest textures. Alternatively, refrigerate for up to 1-2 hours to chill slightly before serving, but consume within the day for best flavor and texture.

Notes

Use fresh berries for the best flavor; frozen berries can be used but thaw and drain excess liquid before combining with the protein powder.
Substitute granola with nuts or seeds for a different texture or to reduce added sugars.
The Carnation Breakfast Essentials® Powder adds extra protein and vitamins, making the parfait more filling and nutritious.
Honey can be adjusted to taste or replaced with maple syrup or agave nectar for variations in sweetness.
Prepare the parfait just before serving to maintain the granola’s crunchiness.
