Lemon Yogurt Berry Swirl With Homemade Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Wash and dry the berries; hull and cut strawberries into pieces, if using. Spoon a layer of yogurt into 4 individual glass bowls or parfait glasses. Add a layer of berries, and sprinkle with a layer of granola. Repeat the layering once or twice more, depending on the height of the bowl or glass, ending with a layer of granola.

Steps:

• For the granola: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toss the oats, almonds and coconut together on a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat.
• Whisk together the vegetable oil and honey in a liquid measuring cup, then pour over the oat mixture. Stir until all the oats and nuts are coated. Season with salt to taste.
• Bake until golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool. Add the cherries, cranberries, and pineapple chunks. Drizzle with some of the maple syrup and toss together.
• To build the parfaits: Line up eight parfait glasses. Start with a large spoonful of the granola, followed by a layer of yogurt, then a layer of berries and a drizzle of maple syrup. Repeat the layers one more time, finishing with berries, drizzled with maple syrup.

Steps:

• Soften yogurt by letting it sit out for a few minutes or by microwaving for 20 seconds. Heat a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the berries and saute until just starting to soften, but not hot throughout. Transfer frozen yogurt to a large bowl and pour over berries (with liquid from bag). Gently swirl berries into yogurt, without completing mixing in.
• Spoon mixture into bowls or tall glass and top with pistachio nuts (you can also refreeze the swirl before serving).

Steps:

• Layer 1/4 cup strawberries, 1/4 cup blueberries, 1/3 container yogurt, 1/3 tablespoon wheat germ, 1/3 of the sliced banana, and about 2 tablespoons of granola in a large bowl. Continue to build the parfait, repeating the layers until all of the ingredients are used completely.
