Skinny Maple Granola Yogurt Parfaits1

As I lately have some time, I had been searching on the internet last week. Trying to find new, interesting ideas, inspirational dishes that I have never tested before, to amaze my loved ones with. Looking for quite some time yet couldn’t discover any interesting stuff. Just before I wanted to give up on it, I came across this delicious and simple dessert by luck on ambitiouskitchen. It seemed so delicious on its photo, that called for prompt action.
It absolutely was not so difficult to imagine how it’s made, its taste and just how much my husband is going to want it. Actually, it is quite simple to impress the man when it comes to treats. Yes, I’m a lucky one. Or possibly he is.Anyhow, I went to the blog and used the step by step instuctions that had been coupled with superb pictures of the process. It really makes life much simpler. I can suppose it’s a slight inconvenience to shoot snap shots down the middle of baking in the kitchen because you most often have gross hands therefore i pretty appreciate the effort and time she devote to make this blogpost .
With that said I am encouraged presenting my very own recipes in a similar way. Thanks for the thought.
I had been fine tuning the main mixture to make it for the taste of my family. I must say that it was a terrific success. They prized the flavor, the thickness and loved having a sweet such as this in the middle of a busy workweek. They quite simply asked for even more, a lot more. Thus the next time I am not going to commit the same miscalculation. I’m likely to twin the volume to get them delighted.

The Peanut Butter Glass Banana Bread can’t be made into french toast for breakfast time. Tragic!
Now that the holiday season are almost more than, we’ve got to obtain our skinny on. Let’s get obsessed with oats, nut products, and fruit!
Granola will be the picture of health, right?
Before we put our skinny jeans on, let’s laugh over Xmas stories.
So on Christmas eve, I drank rich red wine with my children and baked a pie in my own new horse mystic night-shirt. We sang songs from the Audio of Music and ate a significant amount of apple & pear pie. We’re totally odd and I really like it.
Singing songs and cooking pies in horses night shirts… Whatever!
On a serious note: Christmas morning got even better when my Grandma gave me a hummingbird pin. She’s very cute. Another high light? Making banana bread into french toast! Love.
My cycling instructor informed me the next thing to anticipate is bikini period… I can’t decide if that is interesting or completely frightening.
Before I know it I’ll be drinking margaritas, painting my toes pink, and making strawberry shortcake. I have to get summer out of my mind for a bit though.

The only thing I could suggest is eating butterless breakfasts and forgetting the top movie theatre popcorn.
I actually made us something to start off our day best. It’s got whole grains, fruit, yogurt, and nuts. Fruit and yogurt granola parfaits!
Maple syrup and apple sauce make this granola sugary without adding extra sugar. Pecans and almonds maintain it crunchy and nutty.
I actually also added a little bit of coconut at the top which became a toasted golden brown when baked. Mouth watering.
Granola party!
McDonald’s fruits and yogurt parfait has nothing on these. Make sure you bid farewell to sugars overloaded cereal through the grocery store.
