FAQs

 

1. Can I make a Fruit & Yogurt Parfait ahead of time?

Yes! You can prepare it the night before, but add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.

 

2. What fruits work best for a parfait?

Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) work great, but you can also use bananas, mangoes, or apples.

Yes, but Greek yogurt is thicker and higher in protein, making it a better option for a balanced meal.

Use plant-based yogurt like almond, coconut, or soy yogurt and skip the honey if you need it vegan.
