INGREDIENTS

1.5 cups Nonfat Greek yogurt

1 medium Banana

2 tbsp Chia seeds

1 tbsp Maple syrup

0.25 cup Rolled oats

0.5 oz Walnuts

0.5 tsp Vanilla extract

0.25 tsp Ground cinnamon

1 pinch Sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until completely smooth.

• 2

  Cover the bowl and let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow the chia seeds to hydrate and thicken the yogurt into a pudding consistency.

• 3

  While the pudding sets, place a small dry skillet over medium heat and add the rolled oats and walnuts.

• 4

  Toast the oats and walnuts for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning, until they are golden brown and smell aromatic.

• 5

  Remove the toasted mixture from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.

• 6

  Peel the banana and slice it into uniform thin rounds.

• 7

  To assemble the parfait, spoon a third of the chilled yogurt pudding into the bottom of a tall glass or mason jar.

• 8

  Add a layer of sliced bananas followed by a sprinkle of the toasted oat and walnut mixture.

• 9

  Repeat the layers twice more, finishing with a final sprinkle of cinnamon and a small pinch of sea salt to enhance the sweetness.
