2.Add a layer of diced kiwi over the yogurt.
3.Sprinkle a layer of granola over the kiwi.

TIPUse a piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped for neater yogurt layers.

PRO TIPS

What to keep in mind.

5 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.

1
Use ripe but firm kiwis so they hold their shape in the layers instead of turning mushy.
2
Chill your serving glasses for 10 minutes before layering to keep the parfait extra refreshing.
3
Toast the granola in a dry skillet for 2 minutes to amplify its crunch and aroma.
4
To prevent granola from getting soggy, add it right before serving or store it separately for make-ahead parfaits.
5
Slice the kiwi into even 1-cm cubes for consistent texture in every spoonful.

RECIPE VARIATIONS

Adapt it for your goals.

high protein

High-protein

Swap half the Greek yogurt for skyr or cottage cheese blended smooth, and add a scoop of unflavored protein powder to the yogurt mixture — perfect for a post-workout snack.

vegan

Vegan

Use coconut or soy-based plain yogurt, replace honey with maple syrup or agave, and choose a vegan granola — makes the parfait entirely plant-based.

low sugar

Low-sugar

Omit the honey and use a sugar-free granola or unsweetened shredded coconut instead — ideal for reducing added sugars while keeping the parfait satisfying.
