The Ingredients: What’s Inside

The base for these parfaits is simply probiotic yogurt. Plain, no flavor yogurt. You can also use Greek yogurt or whichever type is available where you live. Now that we have the base, here’s what to put on top:

  • berries
  • banana
  • cashews
  • nut butter

How To Make Healthy Breakfast Parfaits in 5 Minutes

I don’t think you need too many instructions on this, but if you’re a toddler who can read, there you go:

  • put some plain yogurt in a glass
  • top with some berries
  • then add chopped bananas
  • then add cashews and walnuts
  • then repeat the layering again
  • finally add some almond butter

Dig in and enjoy!

More Options

  • Dairy-Free: I’ve been making these easy parfaits for many many years, but when I went dairy and gluten-free I was making them with chia pudding and not yogurt (I’m back to eating yogurt right now, as it actually helps with my digestion).. So that works as well, but you can also use any type of dairy-free vegan yogurt you like.
  • Different Fruits: If you don’t like bananas or strawberries, feel free to explore with the fruit you love. You might want to add a little bit of honey or maple syrup to the yogurt if you don’t add a sweet fruit like bananas, mango or pineapple.
  • Nuts and Nut Butters: If roasted cashews and walnuts aren’t your thing, try different types of nuts or seeds that you like. Some great options would be pecans, almonds, pumpkin seeds, flaxseed and sunflower seeds.
  • Granola: Adding some crunchy granola to these would make them even better to be honest. If you have a brand you trust use that or make your own healthy granola.


Take Them On The Go

You can easily get these breakfast parfaits on the go and eat wherever, whenever (they’re also great for a snack) – simply put all ingredients into a jar and close with a lid. Or, what would be even better: use an airtight container with compartments to keep all different parts separate – nuts in one, yogurt another, fruit in the third compartment. Also, make sure to use whole fresh berries (since frozen might get messy).
