A nice parfait that isn’t overly sweet, if you have a big sweet tooth you can swap out the plain yogurt for vanilla or lemon.

We carry an AMAZING line of Canadian-made infused sea salts, this recipe calls for the Saltwest Salted Caramel Chocolate Sea Salt; try it sprinkled over your favourite dessert or a ‘rimmer’ for your favourite specialty coffee or a chocolate martini!

Ingredients

1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp Saltwest Salted Caramel Chocolate Sea Salt
1 Tbsp local honey
2 Cups plain Greek yogurt
1 pt fresh strawberries, quartered
1/2 pt blueberries (thawed if frozen)
3 Tbsp Strawberry Dark Balsamic Vinegar
1 Tbsp sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a bowl combine oats, almonds, cinnamon, Saltwest Salted Caramel Chocolate Sea Salt, and set aside.

Whisk together Strawberry Dark Balsamic Vinegar & honey.

Add wet to dry and stir until well incorporated. Pour the mixture onto a parchment-lined cake pan and bake in the oven until golden brown. Remove and cool to room temperature.

Meanwhile, place the strawberries and blueberries in a bowl with the remaining 2 Tbsp Strawberry Dark Balsamic Vinegar and sugar, stir to coat and let sit for 10-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. In cups, layer the fruit, yogurt and granola evenly and serve. Serves 4
