Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 large apple, diced (preferably a sweet variety like Honeycrisp or Fuji)

1 large pear, diced

1 cup pomegranate seeds

1 cup granola (your favorite variety)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon honey (optional)

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the fruit: In a medium bowl, combine the diced apple and pear. If desired, add a teaspoon of cinnamon and stir to coat the fruit evenly, enhancing the fall flavor.

    Layer the parfait: In clear glasses or bowls, start by spooning a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom.

      Add fruit: Follow with a layer of the cinnamon-coated apple and pear mixture. Sprinkle a generous handful of pomegranate seeds on top of the fruit layer.

        Granola time: Next, add a layer of granola. This adds a delightful crunch to the parfait.

          Repeat layers: Repeat the layering process until the glasses are filled, typically two to three layers depending on the size of your serving dishes.

            Finish with nuts: If using, sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans on the top layer. Drizzle with honey if you're looking for a little extra sweetness.

              Garnish: Add a few fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and a refreshing flavor.

                Serve immediately: Enjoy your Autumn Harvest Fruit & Yogurt Parfaits right away for the best texture, or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving if preparing in advance.
