Prep Time15 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1 cup granola
  • 1/2 cup strawberry preserves

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Use an electric mixer or a sturdy whisk to beat until smooth and creamy. Next, add the honey and vanilla extract, and mix again until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is silky.

Step 2: Slice the Strawberries

  • Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and slice them thinly for even layering and a visually inviting parfait.

Step 3: Assemble the Parfaits

  • Grab your parfait glasses or small jars to start layering. Begin with a spoonful of the cheesecake filling at the bottom. Follow with a layer of granola for crunch, then a layer of fresh strawberry slices. Add a dollop of strawberry preserves for a sweet and fruity burst. Repeat the layers, finishing with a few strawberries and a sprinkle of granola on top for garnish.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

  • Place the assembled parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve chilled for the best experience.

Notes

  • Use low-fat cream cheese to reduce calories without losing creaminess.
  • Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy and avoid sogginess.
  • Substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt for a dairy-free option.
  • Prepare filling and sliced strawberries up to two days ahead for easy meal prep.
  • Adjust honey amount to taste if strawberry preserves are very sweet.
