Repeat for the second parfait.
Toppings: A nice touch is to sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Or leave alone for those not wanting that extra sweetness…….that would be me. Mix about 3 Tablespoons sugar with 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon. Store in a cool place.
Different yogurts - I like Greek yogurt for its texture and tang. See our post for other types of yogurt and their protein values.
Time Saver - The cinnamon apples are delicious and can be made up to a week ahead of time. But if you are in a hurry just use the fresh berries and you can have this made in a few minutes.
Meal prep on Sunday for the entire week. These yogurt parfaits will last for 5-7 days in the refrigerator.
Or freeze this yogurt parfait recipe for up to a month. Longer if you don't mind a difference in texture and maybe a little in taste.
