I love this recipe because the granola and flavored yogurt can be made the day before. The next morning, just roll out of bed and assemble the parfaits in pretty glasses!Laureen Pittman, Riverside, California Ingredients:
4 cups (32 ounces) plain yogurt |
1/2 cup orange juice |
1/4 cup honey |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
4 teaspoons grated orange peel |
granola: |
1-1/2 cups old-fashioned oats |
3/4 cup chopped walnuts |
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar |
3 tablespoons honey |
2 tablespoons canola oil |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup dried cranberries |
Directions:
1. Line a strainer with four layers of cheesecloth or one coffee filter and place over a large bowl. Place yogurt in prepared strainer; cover yogurt with edges of cheesecloth. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
