Nut-Topped Yogurt Parfait
A yogurt parfait is the perfect treat that combines the creaminess of yogurt with the crunch of granola and nuts. It’s refreshing, customizable, and can be enjoyed as a light breakfast, a snack, or even a dessert. What makes this parfait extra special is the texture and flavor of finely-grated nuts. Instead of chopping them into large pieces, we use the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater to create uniform, delicate shreds that bring a smooth crunch to each bite, enhancing the overall experience. With its easy handling and precise blades, the rotary grater makes preparing the perfect nut topping a breeze, saving you time while elevating the texture of your parfait.
🍓Ingredients
2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
1/4 cup granola
1/2 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
1/4 cup nuts (almonds or walnuts), finely grated
A pinch of cinnamon (optional)
🍳Instructions
Prepare Your Parfait Glasses
Begin by adding a few spoonfuls of Greek yogurt to the bottom of clear glasses or bowls to form the first layer.
Add Fresh Fruit
Layer your fresh berries over the yogurt. Feel free to use a mix of strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries to add a pop of color and flavor.
Grate Your Nuts
Using the hand crank cheese grater, grate your choice of almonds or walnuts. The grater's fine blade creates smooth, uniform shreds that add a light, crunchy texture to the parfait. Simply turn the handle and watch the nuts quickly turn into fine pieces, perfect for topping.
Layer the Granola
Add a layer of granola on top of the nuts. This brings an additional crunch and flavor contrast to the creamy yogurt. For a touch of sweetness, drizzle a little honey or maple syrup over the granola.
Top with More Yogurt and Garnish
Add another layer of yogurt, followed by a sprinkle of cinnamon, or more finely grated nuts, for extra crunch. You can also add additional berries for a burst of freshness.

Your Nut-Topped Yogurt Parfait is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it immediately, or refrigerate for later.
