Ingredients:
- For the Parfait:
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

- 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen; strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- For the Toppings:
- 4 teaspoons bee pollen
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds)
- A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional)
Prepare the Oats
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are creamy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Mix the Yogurt
In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract until well combined.
Assemble the Parfaits
In four glasses or bowls, start by adding a layer of the yogurt mixture at the bottom. Next, layer in a spoonful of the cooked oats followed by a layer of mixed berries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of yogurt and a handful of berries on top.
Add Toppings
Sprinkle each parfait with a teaspoon of bee pollen, chopped nuts, and a dash of cinnamon if desired.
