Ingredients Needed

To make these simple parfaits you will need the following ingredients:

• Oats - Feel free to use either rolled oats or quick oats (also known as porridge oats) for this recipe; both work perfectly
• Cinnamon - just some ground cinnamon spice for flavour
• Maple Syrup - this is to caramelize the granola and add flavour. Honey can be used as a substitute
• Low Calorie Spray - I use coconut low calorie spray, but you can use your preferred choice of low calorie spray, I prefer to use a spray oil without any added emulsifiers.
• Pear - canned pears in juice
• Brown Granulated Sweetener - I use erythritol brown granulated sweetener, it's naturally derived and is the closest in taste to real brown sugar. Do not use powdered sweetener as it will affect the bake.
• Yoghurt - I use my favourite fat free Vanilla greek yoghurt, but you can use any yoghurt you like.

Once all the ingredients are prepared, you can get ready to make this easy recipe.

Variations

For a tasty twist on the classic Pear Crumble Yogurt Parfait, why not try using a variety of canned fruits, giving them a caramelised edge? Replace the pear with options like peaches, apricots, or a mix of berries. Simply drain your choice of canned fruit and toss it in a pan with a bit of brown sugar. Cooking the fruit this way not only deepens the flavour but also adds a delightful caramelised sweetness.

If you prefer, you can apply the same technique to frozen berries. Warm them up in a pan with brown sugar to coax out their natural juices and caramelise them slightly. This method infuses the fruit with a rich, complex sweetness, making for a more indulgent version of your parfait. Whether you opt for the brightness of peaches, the tanginess of apricots, or the mixed berries' vibrant hues, this approach is a fantastic way to enjoy a luxurious treat that celebrates the flavours of each season.

Make-Ahead and Store Pear Crumble Yogurt Parfaits

For a delightful make-ahead treat, layering and storing your Pear Crumble Yogurt Parfait is a breeze. Begin by spooning a layer of your cooked, cooled fruit into the bottom of a clear jar or container, followed by a generous dollop of creamy yogurt. Sprinkle a layer of the crunchy quick crumble on top of the yogurt. For the best experience, seal the jar tightly and refrigerate.

These parfaits can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, making them a fantastic option for grab-and-go breakfasts or snacks. Just remember, the longer they sit, the softer the crumble will become, so if you prefer it extra crunchy, consider adding the crumble just before serving.
