💡 Chef tips
- To keep the granola crunchy, assemble the parfaits right before serving rather than letting them sit in the refrigerator for too long.
- You can easily make these ahead by packing the yogurt and fruit in containers and keeping the granola in a separate baggie to add at the last minute.
- Feel free to swap the honey for agave nectar or use coconut yogurt for a delicious dairy-free, pareve variation.
