Greek Yogurt Parfait with Berries and Almonds

Ingredients

  • 2 cups plain pasteurized whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1 small ripe banana
  • 2 tbsp finely ground almonds (almond flour); only if your child already eats tree nuts
  • 1/4 cup certified gluten-free rolled oats, blended to a fine crumb
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds

Method & Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the berries and pat them dry.

  2. 2

    Prepare the fruit for your child's age. For children under 4, flatten every blueberry with a fork or cut it into quarters, and dice the strawberries small.

  3. 3

    Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth, then stir in the yogurt for gentle sweetness.

  4. 4

    Stir the chia seeds into the yogurt and leave for 10 minutes so they soften and no dry seeds remain.

  5. 5

    Mix the ground almonds and the blended oats in a small bowl.

  6. 6

    In small cups or bowls, layer yogurt, fruit and a sprinkle of the almond-oat crumb, then repeat.

  7. 7

    Serve straight away with a spoon while your child sits upright and supervised.

Storage & Preparation Notes

Storage Instructions:

Best eaten fresh. Keep the yogurt, fruit and crumb in separate containers in the fridge for up to 2 days and layer just before serving.

Helpful Toddler Feeding Tips:

For a nut-free version, for example for daycare, leave out the almonds; the oat crumb works well on its own. Do not add honey or syrup for children under 2. Never give honey to babies under 12 months.
