Fruit and Yogurt Parfait Board | Healthy Brunch Idea

I have been on a yogurt parfait kick lately and start each morning with a giant bowl. I decided to bring a styled board with all the best fruit and yogurt parfait toppings. This is such a fun idea if you have any brunches coming up, and it’s so easy and quick to throw together. One of the convenient parts about this board is that you can customize it to fit your dietary needs. You can make it vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, etc. Fruit and Yogurt Parfait Charcuterie Board, brunch idea, brunch food, what to bring to brunch, brunch charcuterie, gluten free, dairy free, granola, berries, fun party, brunch food, pretty, banana breadI chose some of my favorite parfait ingredients for this board. I added homemade banana bread, my cranberry granola, chocolate peanut butter granola, fresh blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, oranges, cherries, maple pecans, plain Greek yogurt with honey, and strawberry banana Greek yogurt to the board.

What’s on My Parfait Board:

For this board, I included some of my favorite toppings and extras:

  • Homemade Banana Bread: Inspired by the breakfast platters in Hawaii, where banana bread was always a delightful surprise alongside any breakfast order.
  • Granola Varieties: My cranberry granola for a tart twist and chocolate peanut butter granola for those who love a richer flavor.
  • Fresh Fruit: Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, oranges, and cherries for a vibrant mix of colors and flavors.
  • Maple Pecans: A sweet, crunchy addition that pairs perfectly with creamy yogurt.
  • Yogurt Choices: I used Siggi’s plain Greek yogurt mixed with honey for natural sweetness and Danon’s strawberry banana Greek yogurt for a touch of fruity flavor.

When I visited Hawaii, banana bread was always served with breakfast at restaurants. Even if I ordered eggs and bacon, a side of banana bread would be on the plate. I loved that idea, so I decided to incorporate banana bread with this board. I was initially going to cut up the bananas for the board, but sometimes I’m just in that baking mood!

For my yogurt, I used Siggi’s plain Greek with honey mixed in, and for the flavored yogurt, I used Danon strawberry banana Greek yogurt. If you want to keep this board vegan, there are many dairy alternatives at grocery stores now. I love coconut milk and oat milk yogurt, too! Being pregnant, I try to eat a ton of Greek yogurt since my body needs calcium.Fruit and Yogurt Parfait Charcuterie Board, brunch idea, brunch food, what to bring to brunch, brunch charcuterie, gluten free, dairy free, granola, berries, fun party, brunch food, pretty, banana breadI think breakfast boards will be a part of my life more. I’ve been thinking about making a french toast-themed one, a pancake one, and maybe an avocado toast board! They are just so pretty and easy to throw together. I put them wooden pizza board and used little white bowls for the ingredients.

One of the great things about this recipe is that you probably already have all the ingredients in your house. There are only seven ingredients and it takes less than 20-minutes to make.
