Ingredients
  

2 large ripe peaches, diced

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla flavored)

1 cup granola (cinnamon or honey-flavored recommended)

1 cup whipped cream (optional for topping)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches with the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and fresh lemon juice. Gently toss the mixture to ensure that the peaches are evenly coated. Allow this mixture to sit for about 10 minutes, during which the peaches will release their juices and absorb the flavors.

    Layer the Parfaits: Take clear glasses or dessert cups to assemble your parfaits. Begin by adding a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom of each glass, about 1/4 cup per serving.

      Add the Peaches: Spoon a generous 1/4 cup of the marinated peaches along with their flavorful juices on top of the yogurt layer.

        Granola Crunch: Sprinkle approximately 1/4 cup of granola over the peach layer, adding a delightful crunch that complements the creamy yogurt and sweet peaches.

          Repeat Layers: Continue layering by adding another 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt, followed by more marinated peaches and another layer of granola. You can create 2 to 3 layers depending on the height of the glasses and your personal preference.

            Top Off the Parfaits: Conclude each parfait with a final dollop of yogurt. If you desire, add a swirl of whipped cream on top, and finish with an extra sprinkle of granola for texture.

              Garnish and Serve: If you choose, garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and a refreshing touch. Serve immediately for the best taste or cover and chill in the refrigerator for up to one hour before serving to enhance the flavors.
