I don't know about you, but autumn always makes me a little sentimental. Maybe it's the changing leaves, the cozy sweaters, or the scent of spices wafting from the kitchen. This Nutmeg Berry Nostalgia Parfait is my attempt to capture all those feelings in a single dessert. It's not just a treat; it's a hug in a glass, a little reminder of simpler times. I think you're gonna love it. One of my favorite things is to think about creating food that makes people feel something more than just satisfaction; it’s about capturing moments and nostalgia.

The heart of this parfait lies in the nutmeg-infused yogurt. The warm, slightly spicy aroma of nutmeg complements the tartness of the berries perfectly. And speaking of berries, the compote is a simple yet delightful mix of seasonal berries, simmered until they burst with flavor and thicken into a luscious sauce. I remember one Thanksgiving I made some pies for the church and I accidentally forgot the berries. I had to drive 30 minutes to the store to get them. The granola adds a welcome crunch, contrasting beautifully with the creamy yogurt and the soft berries. I’m actually getting hungry writing this! Its so delicious, the granola.

I think it will be a favorite from now on. Who knows, maybe it’ll become part of your fall traditions too.

🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. Prepare the Berry Compote: In a medium saucepan, combine the mixed berries, sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices and the mixture thickens slightly, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  2. Infuse the Yogurt: In a bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey, and nutmeg until well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
  3. Layer the Parfait: In individual serving glasses or bowls, layer the nutmeg yogurt, berry compote, and granola. Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the glass.
  4. Garnish (optional): Top with fresh berries, a sprinkle of granola, and a dusting of nutmeg.
  5. Chill (optional): For a more refreshing treat, chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately and savor the comforting flavors of fall. This is so delicious you'll want to make it every day. What's stopping you?
