Strawberry Banana Parfaits
Homemade crunchy homemade granola is layered together with fresh fruit and honey-sweetened Greek yogurt in this incredibly delicious Strawberry Banana Parfait recipe.
Ingredients
- 6 large dates pitted
- 3 tbsp natural almond butter
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
- 1 tsp real vanilla extract
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup raw almonds roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 2 large bananas sliced
- 1 cup fresh strawberries sliced
Instructions
- Pre-heat -oven to 350°F and line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with a piece of parchment paper, leaving a bit of overlap on the sides.
- In a high-powered blender or a food processor, combine the pitted dates, almond butter, honey, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Transfer the date mixture into a large mixing bowl and add the oats, cinnamon, salt, almonds, and sunflower seeds. Mix until well combined and the oats and nuts are nicely coated.
- Transfer the granola mixture to the prepared baking dish and pat down into an even layer. Place in the pre-heated oven and bake until lightly golden brown and toasted on top, approximately 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and cool to room temperature. Granola will crumble as you remove it from the pan, with some larger chunks.
- To serve, alternate layers of Greek yogurt, granola, sliced bananas, and fresh strawberries in 4 parfait dishes or mason jars. Enjoy!
