Ingredients
  

2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt

1 medium apple, diced (choose a sweet variety, such as Honeycrisp or Fuji)

1 medium pear, diced

1 cup fresh pomegranate seeds

1/2 cup granola (with nuts and seeds for added texture)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for additional sweetness)

A handful of chopped walnuts or pecans (optional, for extra crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the vanilla Greek yogurt with the ground cinnamon. For a sweeter flavor, stir in honey or maple syrup until fully incorporated, adjusting the sweetness to your preference.

    Create the Parfait Layers: In individual serving glasses or bowls, begin layering your parfaits. Start with a generous dollop of the cinnamon yogurt as the first base layer.

      Add the Fruit: Follow the yogurt base with a layer of diced apples, ensuring an even spread. Next, add a layer of diced pears, and then top with a handful of fresh pomegranate seeds for a pop of color and flavor.

        Incorporate Granola: Sprinkle a layer of granola over the fruit mixture, adding a delightful crunch and texture to each bite.

          Repeat the Layers: Continue building the parfait by alternating layers of yogurt, fruit, and granola. Aim for at least two to three layers, allowing the colors and textures to create an appealing visual experience.

            Finish with a Beautiful Top Layer: On the top layer, add another dollop of cinnamon yogurt. Decorate with a few pomegranate seeds and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch and a gourmet touch.

              Chill & Serve: You can enjoy these parfaits right away or cover and refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully.

                Enjoy: Serve your chilled parfait as a nutritious and delicious breakfast or snack option, perfect for celebrating the flavors of autumn!
