Looking for a delicious, creamy fruit dessert? Look no further! I’ve got you covered with this epic yogurt and granola fruit parfait! These delicious and colorful dessert cups are made with plain Greek yogurt, home-made raspberry sauce, tons of fresh fruit and crunchy granola! I make my raspberry sauce with fresh raspberries and just a touch of sugar for added sweetness. Nothing beats using fresh fruit and I love to add pineapple, blueberry and nectarines to this fruit parfait. Feel free to switch up the fruit according to what’s in season.
Make these cups to go and take them to work for a light breakfast or mid-day snack. I love to make a few of these ahead of time and keep them in the refrigerate so I can have a quick and delicious snack when I need one. If you’re making these ahead of time, keep the granola separate, or add it on top so that it doesn’t get soggy from standing in fruit juice.
This parfait is seriously good lookin’! I would eat one up right now!
