How to Make It
[Step 1] Cut the peaches into bite-sized cubes. If using canned peaches, drain off some of the syrup.
[Step 2] Line the bottom of the glass with granola to create a base with texture.
[Step 3] Gently spoon the Greek yogurt on top and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon.
[Step 4] Pile the sliced peaches generously on top of the yogurt, and drizzle honey over the top to finish.
[Step 5] Garnish with mint, if available, and it’s done!
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
[Mistake: The layers mix and the dish looks cloudy] If you pour the yogurt in too vigorously, it will mix with the granola at the bottom and ruin the appearance. To avoid this, try using the back of a spoon to gently press down on the granola first, then carefully spoon the yogurt on top.
A Quick Tip for Making It Taste Great
If you use a thick yogurt, such as “Greek yogurt,” the layers won’t mix and the dish will turn out beautifully.
In Closing
If you make this in a chilled glass, you’ll enjoy an even cooler sensation. If you don’t have peaches, you can also make a delicious version with frozen mangoes or kiwis. At the end of a hard day, treat yourself to your very own cute parfait and let it soothe your soul to your heart’s content.
