Diabetes Friendly Cinnamon Apple Greek Yogurt Parfait
Quick, diabetes-friendly cinnamon apple Greek yogurt parfait with granola… a high fiber, low-sugar, healthy fall breakfast in minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 medium apple sliced thin
- 1 tsp coconut oil or unsalted butter melted
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp granulated stevia or your preferred zero-sugar sweetener adjust to taste
- 2/3 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
- ½ cup high protein, high fiber granola
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, walnuts, pecans, chia seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon
Instructions
- Place the sliced apple in a microwave-safe bowl. Add the coconut oil or butter, cinnamon, and stevia. Stir to coat evenly. Cover loosely with a microwave-safe lid or plate. Microwave on high for 2–3 minutes, stirring halfway, until the apples are tender but still slightly firm. Let cool slightly.
- In a glass or jar, layer half of the granola at the bottom. Add a layer of Greek yogurt (~½ cup). Top with half of the cooked cinnamon apples. Repeat layers with remaining granola, yogurt, and apples.
- Add optional toppings if desired: nuts, chia seeds, or extra cinnamon for garnish.
- Serve immediately. Best enjoyed fresh to keep the granola crunchy.
