Yogurt & Oat Parfait

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup full-fat plain yogurt
• 4 tbsp rolled oats, soaked until soft
• 1/4 cup soft fruit (banana, blueberry, or strawberry)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Method

1. 01

   In a small bowl or jar, spoon 1/4 cup of full-fat plain yogurt as the base layer.

2. 02

   Sprinkle 2 tbsp of softened rolled oats (soaked in water or milk for 5–10 minutes until soft) over the yogurt layer.

3. 03

   Add a layer of soft mashed or sliced fruit — ripe banana slices, blueberries (halved for safety), or mashed strawberries work wonderfully.

4. 04

   Repeat the layers: yogurt, soft oats, fruit, ending with fruit on top for a colorful presentation.

5. 05

   Serve immediately or refrigerate assembled parfait for up to a few hours before serving. No cooking needed — just layer and enjoy!

How to offer

Serve on a preloaded spoon or let baby self-feed with a soft silicone spoon. Offer as a breakfast or snack. Ensure oats are sufficiently softened before serving to 9-month-olds.
