    how to make candy corn inspired fruit parfait

    Detailed instructions and measurements are listed in the recipe card at the bottom of this page.

    • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt and maple syrup. Mix to combine until maple syrup is thoroughly mixed through the yogurt.
    • In a small jar or glass, layer your ingredients as follows: pineapple, top with oranges, top with yogurt mix.
    • If using, top with whip cream, sprinkles, and candy. Enjoy!

    Tips, tricks, and faqs

    Can I use a different flavor of yogurt? Absolutely. Use whatever yogurt you prefer. I specifically use nonfat, plain Greek yogurt sweetened and flavored with pure maple syrup because of the protein content. Use what you love!

    Can this be made ahead of time? You could prep the individual ingredients ahead of time, but I wouldn't recommend assembly until you're ready to eat them.

    What kind of yogurt parfait cup container should I use? I love to use either a stemless wine glass or a pint size mason jar. If you put it in a mason jar, you can have your yogurt parfait to go!

    What is the best granola for a yogurt parfait? Honestly, whatever your favorite granola is, that's the one I'd choose! I personally like the Nature Valley Protein Granola.

    alterations for picky eaters

    • Use your picky eater's favorite yogurt!
    • Let your picky eater choose their favorite candy or sprinkles.
    • You can opt to use a different sweetener than maple syrup, or honestly just use an already sweetened yogurt straight from the store. Tailor it to their tastes.

    alterations to lower the calories or ww points

    It's great as is! Obviously you could leave off any sprinkles or candy, but who wants to do that?! There's no healthy candy corn, but you can take a healthy treat and add some of your favorite candy.

    I like to add protein granola to the tops of mine to make it a low calorie, protein packed, granola fruit yogurt parfait!
