Assembly
- In a glass or mason jar, add a scoop of yogurt at the bottom.
- Add a layer of cranberries, followed by a layer of granola.
- Repeat the layers until you reach the top.
- Top the parfait with extra cranberries, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg.
Serving

Notes
You can prepare these the night before without the granola, and just add that in the morning. This recipe is easily customizable with other fruits like bananas or blueberries.
