Chef’s Notes
  • Layer parfait just before serving to keep granola crunchy.
  • Use any high-fiber cereal you like instead of granola.
  • Try topping with rinsed, chopped fresh mint leaves for extra flavor and color.
  • To save money, use fresh fruits that are in season. When seasonal fruits are hard to find, use thawed frozen fruit.
  • Use leftover fruit in Fruit Smoothies.
  • Use Homemade Granola.
  • To ensure this recipe is truly gluten-free, use ingredients labeled "certified gluten-free." Some foods, like oats or soy sauce, can contain traces of gluten depending on the brand or processing methods.
