Orange Yogurt Parfait
This orange yogurt parfait is a delightful mix of creamy Greek yogurt, sweet mandarin oranges, and crunchy granola. Perfect for breakfast or a nutritious snack, it’s both easy to make and adaptable to fit various dietary needs.
Ingredients
- 3 mandarin oranges
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or non-dairy yogurt of choice
- 1 tsp pure maple syrup or to taste
- 1/4 cup granola or finely chopped pecans
Instructions
- Peel one mandarin orange and separate its segments. Chop the segments into bite-sized pieces and set them aside.
- Slice the remaining 2 mandarins in half lengthwise and juice them using a citrus juicer. This should yield about 1/4 cup of fresh juice.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the fresh mandarin juice, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup until smooth.
- Stir in the granola or pecans to add a delightful crunch to the creamy mixture.
- Divide the yogurt mixture into two small bowls or parfait glasses for serving.
- Top each serving with the reserved mandarin pieces. For extra flavor, grate some fresh orange zest on top.
- Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving for a chilled treat.
