Notes
You can customize this parfait with your choice of fruits and granola.
For a vegan option, use dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
This parfait can be prepared in advance by keeping each layer separate and assembling right before serving to maintain the crunchiness of the granola.
If you need fewer servings, simply halve the ingredients accordingly.
