Ingredients:

For the Mixed Berry Compote:

  • 2 cups mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch (or a gluten-free alternative)

For the Parfait Layers:

  • 2 cups gluten-free granola (store-bought or homemade)

  • 2 cups Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt alternative

  • Fresh berries for garnish (optional)

  • Honey or maple syrup for drizzling (optional)


Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mixed Berry Compote:

  • In a saucepan, combine the mixed berries, granulated sugar, fresh lemon juice, cornstarch, and water.

  • Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the berries break down, about 10-15 minutes.

  • Remove the compote from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

2. Assemble the Parfait:

  • In serving glasses or bowls, start by layering 2 tablespoons of gluten-free granola at the bottom of each glass.

  • Add a layer of Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt) on top of the granola, about 1/4 cup for each layer.

  • Spoon a generous tablespoon of the mixed berry compote over the yogurt layer.

  • Add a layer of fresh berries

  • Add another layer of Greek yogurt

  • Add another layer of gluten-free granola

  • Repeat the layers as desired, ending with a spoonful of berry compote or fresh berries on top.

3. Garnish and Serve:

  • Garnish your gluten-free mixed berry parfaits with fresh berries for an extra burst of color and flavor.

  • Optionally, drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top for added sweetness.
