Method
 

Preparation Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of plain Greek yogurt with the zest of one lemon, 3 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of honey, and a splash of vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until smooth and creamy.
  2. Grab your favorite serving glasses or small bowls and start layering! Spoon a generous layer of the lemon yogurt mixture into each glass, followed by a layer of crunchy granola, then a layer of fresh blueberries. Repeat the layering process until you reach the top of the glasses, finishing with yogurt.
  3. Top each serving with a sprinkle of fresh lemon zest and a few extra blueberries. Optionally, add a mint sprig on top for a refreshing garnish.
  4. Enjoy your Lemon Blueberry Parfait right away or store the lemon yogurt mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Layer with granola and blueberries just before serving.
