Submitted by COOKGIRl

"From Sue Bee Honey website. Use a combination of (seasonal) fresh fruit that is available where you live! A no guilt dessert!"

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1⁄3 cup honey (original recipe specified 3/4 cup!)

• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, peaches, cherries, etc.)
• 3⁄4 cup granola cereal (I suggest Granola)

directions

1. Slightly soften the honey in the microwave so that it is easier to stir. Cool.

3. Using parfait glasses, layer the honey mixture alternately with the fruit and granola, ending with granola on top.
4. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Made for a great breakfast. I used more strawberries and granola, and couldn't help adding the honey to the cut berries instead of the yogurt. It macerated for a short time, but made a very yummy syrup for them to drizzle over. I agree with the recipe poster that the amount of honey she adjusted to is right, especially since granola usually has a fair amount of sweetness to it.

I made just the one using strawberries, low fat French vanilla yoghurt and low GI special K cereal and the DM thoroughly enjoyed this treat for breakfast, thank you Cookgirl, made for Aussie/Kiwi Recipe Swap #83 December 2014.

I made this a few days ago and forgot to review it, but this recipe is fantastic! :) I used yoplait vanilla yogurt (so no vanilla extract) and Special K granola. For fruit, I used strawberries (frozen, that I thawed) and bananas. Mmm! I scaled this down for one and it was the perfect breakfast for a busy morning! Thank you so much for sharing!

Good stuff. Filling breakfast. I used Recipe #65555 as suggested but more of it! I used creamed honey, Balkan (thick) yogurt, halal vanilla paste, fuji apples chopped and red grapes cut in half as that is the fresh fruit I had on hand.

very nice and crunchy, we liked it a lot. I scaled it to 2 servings and had no plain yogurt so used activia strawberry and left out the vanilla. for the fruit i used strawberries, cherries and blueberries. Had no granola so I put 2 cereals together, haha, cherrios and high fibre crisp, worked beautifully! I think this would make a great breakfast and will try it that way. Thanks for posting.
