Ingredients for Tropical Fruit Parfait

You’ll need just 4 simple ingredients to make these parfaits. 

– Coconut Yogurt: I usually opt-in for coconut yogurt to add a tropical flavor and a creamy texture to the parfait. If you can’t find coconut yogurt, you can follow your heart and go with any yogurt of your choosing!

– Granola: Nothing too specific here, use what you have! You can even make your own granola from scratch, there is no wrong answer.

– Fresh Mango & Pineapple: Can’t have a tropical fruit parfait without the fruit! Highly recommend going with fresh fruit for the ultimate refreshing element. Not a fan of mango and pineapple? No worries, they can be substituted for any of your favorite tropical fruits such as kiwi, banana, and papaya!

Ways to enhance your parfait

– Choose a variety of tropical fruits: Consider using a mix of fruits such as mangoes, papayas, pineapples, kiwis, and bananas to add depth of flavor and color to your parfait.

– Add honey or agave: Sweeten the yogurt by drizzling honey or agave syrup over each layer. This will enhance the natural sweetness of the fruits and create a delicious blend of flavors.

– Topping Extras: Finish off your parfait with a sprinkle of chia seeds, shredded coconut, sliced almonds, or fresh mint leaves to give it an extra burst of flavor and texture.

– Chill before serving: chill your parfait in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and create a delicious refreshing tropical treat.
