Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 tablespoon granulated sugar (adjust based on the sweetness of your strawberries)

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup granola (flavor of your choice)

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with the tablespoon of sugar. Gently toss them together to coat evenly. Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes, during which time the strawberries will release their natural juices and form a luscious syrup.

    Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium speed until soft peaks begin to form. Take care not to overwhip; the cream should be light and fluffy, avoiding a grainy texture.

      Combine Yogurt and Sweetener: In a separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined.

        Fold Ingredients Together: Gently fold the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture using a spatula. This process should be done slowly to maintain the light and airy texture of the parfait base. Mix until just combined and no streaks of cream remain.

          Layer the Parfaits: Take clear cups or glasses to showcase the beautiful layers. Start by adding a spoonful of the yogurt mixture at the bottom. Follow with a generous layer of the macerated strawberries, then sprinkle some granola on top. Repeat these layers until the glasses are filled, finishing off with a delightful layer of strawberries on top to create an appealing presentation.

            Chill the Parfaits: Once assembled, cover the parfaits with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator. Let them chill for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully and the granola to soften slightly, enhancing the overall texture.

              Serve and Garnish: Before serving, add a few whole strawberries on top of each parfait and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint for a vibrant and refreshing touch.
