Figgy Breakfast Parfaits

When you need a dish that looks fancy for a brunch but don’t have much time, these figgy breakfast parfaits are perfect. Simply slice up some figs and assemble!

Figs in season have been my all-time favorite fruit since I was a small child, climbing the swaying branches of the fig trees BOTH of my grandmothers had in their backyards. So, this time of year, I will always choose them first. 

But here’s an idea that works all year round. Slice various fruits, put out bowls of yogurt and granola with a squeezy bottle of honey and some pretty glasses. Make people assemble their own! You are welcome.

I haven’t quantified the total quantities since who knows how many parfaits you might want to make, but here’s about what you need for each one. Don’t get too hung up on amounts. 

Ingredients

3 fresh figs for slicing

≈ 1/2 cup whole milk yogurt

≈ 1/3 cup your favorite granola – I like Quaker Simply Granola with raisins and almonds

≈ 2 tablespoons honey

1 whole fig for on top

Method

Slice your figs and discard the stems.

Add a generous tablespoon of granola to the parfait glass. 

Top with a couple of tablespoons yogurt. Squeeze on some honey to sweeten. 

Add a good layer of sliced figs. 

Top with a couple of tablespoons of granola. 

The next layer is more yogurt. About a 1/4 cup. And then another drizzle of honey.

Top with another layer of sliced figs. 

Then more granola. 

Finally, finish with a dollop of yogurt, drizzled with honey, topped by a whole fig. Heaven.

With no fancy brunch to go to or host, my husband and I enjoyed this easy, delicious breakfast on a weekday. Who says we have to save parfaits for the weekend? 

Enjoy!
