- 2 cups diced peaches
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons honey divided; reserve 2 tablespoons for the yogurt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon optional
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg "a pinch"
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or extract
- 1 cup homemade granola or store bought
Wash and dice 3 to 4 peaches, which should give you about 2 cups. I never peel my peaches, but you can if you'd prefer.
In a small bowl, combine your peaches with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of honey, saving the rest for sweetening your yogurt if desired.
If you'd like, you can add ½ teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of grated nutmeg.
In another bowl, use a hand mixer, or a strong arm and a whisk, to mix your Greek yogurt with the remaining two tablespoons of honey, a teaspoon of vanilla until smooth, and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream until light and fluffy.
Note: you can keep your yogurt plain, or if using thin yogurt skip the heavy cream and just sweeten with a little honey.
Use a spoon or a piping bag to place some yogurt cream in the bottom of a glass.
Top with a spoonful of your brown sugar peaches and a scoop of granola.
Repeat with another layer of yogurt and another layer of peaches.
Top with granola and enjoy!
Using frozen fruit: I would recommend thawing your fruit first and patting it dry before either adding it to you parfait or macerating it.
Meal prep: Layer your yogurt and fruit in a mason jar and screw on the lid. Put in your tote with an ice pack. Place your granola in a separate jar, or zip top bag, and combine the two when you are ready to eat. Can be made up to 2 days ahead.
