PREPARATION
These steps are followed for the preparation of Vegan Greek Yoghurt Parfait With Berries:
- Prepare Ingredients: Rinse the mixed berries gently under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Preparing the berries carefully helps retain their freshness and prevents extra water from affecting the parfait’s texture.
- Layer Yoghurt: Spoon half of the soy yoghurt into the bottom of a small glass, jar or bowl. Spread it evenly to create a creamy base layer that will hold the toppings neatly in place.
- Add Berries: Scatter half of the prepared mixed berries over the yoghurt layer. Distribute them evenly so every bite delivers both the freshness of fruit and the creaminess of yoghurt.
- Top With Granola: Sprinkle one tablespoon of granola over the berries. This adds a satisfying crunch and creates contrast with the soft fruit and yoghurt beneath.
- Repeat Layers: Add the remaining soy yoghurt as the next layer, smoothing the surface gently. Top this with the rest of the mixed berries for a colourful and balanced second tier.
- Add Final Toppings: Finish by sprinkling the remaining granola and pumpkin seeds on top. These add texture, flavour and extra nutritional value while making the parfait visually appealing.
- Serve Immediately Or Chill: Enjoy the parfait fresh for maximum crunch or cover and refrigerate if you prefer to serve it later. Chilling also allows the flavours to blend more fully.

TIPS
Here are some helpful tips for Vegan Greek Yoghurt Parfait With Berries:
- Use Thick Yoghurt: Choose a thick soy or coconut yoghurt for a creamier and Greek-style texture.
- Layer Thoughtfully: Start with yoghurt to prevent Granola from going soggy if preparing ahead.
- Chill Ingredients: Cold yoghurt and berries enhance the parfait’s refreshing quality.
- Add Granola Last: Sprinkle Granola just before eating for maximum crunch.
- Use A Clear Jar: A clear glass or mason jar makes for an eye-catching layered presentation.
VARIATIONS
- Change The Fruit: Use mango, kiwi, pineapple or stone fruits, depending on the season.
- Add Flavour: Mix cinnamon or vanilla extract into the yoghurt for extra flavour depth.
- Boost With Superfoods: Add chia seeds, flaxseeds or cacao nibs for more nutritional value.
- Switch The Base: Replace soy yoghurt with almond or coconut yoghurt for different textures.
- Make It Dessert-Like: Add a drizzle of maple syrup or agave for a sweet twist.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Store In The Refrigerator: Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
- Keep Granola Separate: For more extended storage, store granola separately and add just before serving.
- Not Ideal For Freezing: Freezing may alter the texture of the yoghurt and berries.
- Meal Preparation Friendly: Prepare multiple jars ahead and store without Granola until serving.
- Best Served Cold: Serve chilled for the best taste and consistency.
