Maple Pumpkin Pie Yogurt Breakfast Parfait

This is like having pumpkin pie for breakfast; except this parfait is low-fat and packed with nutrition. It's a perfect autumn breakfast.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (regular, low-fat, or fat-free)
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (unsweetened, unflavored)
  • 3/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or more to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon ground flax seed (optional)
  • 1/2 to 1 cup lowfat granola

Directions
Combine yogurt, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, and flax seed in small bowl. Taste and add additional syrup, if more sweetness is desired. Add 1/4 cup yogurt mixture to 2 parfait glasses. Sprinkle on a layer of granola. Add another layer of yogurt and granola. Top with remaining yogurt, sprinkle a garnish of granola on top. Best if assembled right before serving to avoid soggy granola.

Make ahead tip: Yogurt & pumpkin mixture may be combined the day before and refrigerated for faster parfait assembly for breakfast the next day.
