Notes

  • Use plain or vanilla Greek yogurt to adjust sweetness as preferred.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a different sweetener option.
  • Feel free to toast the pecans lightly to intensify their flavor and crunch.
  • This parfait can be prepared in advance but should be served shortly after assembling to keep the granola crisp.
  • For a vegan option, use dairy-free yogurt and a plant-based sweetener.
