It can be easy to reach for a couple of slices of toast in the morning when you’re in a hurry. However, toast doesn’t exactly come with tons of health benefits. Additionally, it is easy to grow bored of eating the same thing every morning. With this yogurt parfait recipe, you can even make it the night before, meaning that you can snooze an extra five minutes before work!
For this yogurt parfait recipe, all we need are some kiwis, strawberries, raspberries, and grapes. Make sure you’ll get them fresh so you’ll be able to appreciate each flavor. This yogurt fruit parfait recipe has the right mixture of creamy, sour, and sweet flavors. Adding in kiwi gives a refreshing taste to our fruit parfait that will make you crave for more!
Supermarkets will have a stock of these fruits, often packed, so it will not be a problem if they are not in season yet. Of course, you are always welcome to give your own spin to this yogurt parfait. If you prefer a richer fruit combo like mangoes, peaches, and bananas, why not? We’re sure they’ll taste equally good!

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I use to make this dessert creamier?
If you want to make this recipe even more delectable, use Greek yogurt and a splash of vanilla extract. Greek yogurt is thicker and richer than the regular yogurt and vanilla extract gives you that familiar sweetness you’d find in most baked goods.
Are there alternatives to the ingredients?
If your local grocery store has run out of certain items for this yogurt parfait, we have a couple of suggestions for alternative ingredients. For instance, strawberries can only be available for a certain time. If there are no strawberries available, you can use blackberries or blueberries instead. Both berries have a sweet flavor that can balance the sourness of raspberry. And if you can’t find granola in your supermarket, plain corn flakes work for parfait as well.
Conclusion
Yogurt parfait is one of the easiest things to make! Additionally, they're extremely pretty to look at. We find that this simple recipe gives us a little motivation to get up and get ready in the mornings. Alternatively, you can get creative with what you put into your yogurt parfait. Try anything from dark chocolate chips to dried cranberries.Have your own special recipe to share? Submit Your Recipe Today!
