Time 1h45m

Yield 4 parfaits, plus 10 cups granola

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups pecans, coarsely chopped
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup peanuts, chopped
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
2 cups Greek yogurt
2 cups mixed berries, such as blackberries and blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Combine the oats, pecans, sunflower seeds and peanuts in a large bowl. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the sugar, honey, oil, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and 1/4 cup water. Pour the liquid mixture over the oat mix and stir until combined. Pour onto two baking sheets and spread evenly.
  • Bake 40 minutes, stirring halfway through to allow for even browning. Raise the oven temperature to 300 degrees F and continue to bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Pour the cooked oat mixture into a bowl and stir in the raisins, cranberries and coconut. Let cool. The granola will keep in an airtight container at room temperature in a cool dry place for up to 3 weeks.
  • In four parfait glasses or a large glass bowl, create alternating layers of granola, yogurt and berries, using a total of 2 cups of the granola.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
A pinch kosher salt
1/3 cup maple syrup
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 cup corn puff cereal, such as Corn Pops
2 cups plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup raspberries
1 cup blueberries
1 cup blackberries

Steps:

  • For the granola: Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Toast the rolled oats, coconut, pecans, cinnamon and salt in a large skillet over medium heat until everything is toasted and aromatic, about 2 minutes. Stir in the maple syrup, butter and brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for about a minute to thicken slightly. Fold in the corn puff cereal until completely coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out in a single layer to let cool slightly.
  • For the parfait: While the granola is cooling off, stir together the yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon.
  • In 4 glasses or mason jars, layer in a spoonful of granola, a layer of yogurt and a layer of mixed raspberries, blueberries and blackberries, repeating as many times as your vessel will fit and finishing with a layer of yogurt. Top each parfait with a couple of berries. Serve right away or chill until ready to serve.
