In this recipe, we used Ujong Gourmet’s Pandan Coconut Granolas – tossed together using freeze-dried pandan leaves, Javanese vanilla, cashews, sunflower seeds and baked coconut chips with gluten-free rolled oats for a source of wholesome fibre and protein. We also added some natural tartness to the pan-baked granolas with red kiwifruit as it was in season and rich in vitamin C, and antioxidants such as anthocyanins that help to improve mood and wellbeing! Not forgetting strawberries – its heart-shaped silhouette tells you that this fruit is good for you. The tiny strawberry is packed with vitamins and fibre, and is a great source of antioxidants, manganese and potassium – just one serving provides more vitamin C than an orange!

 

Pile them up together with protein and calcium-rich yogurt and you have yourself a refreshing treat to start the day right, or an instant mood-lifter that packs a punch! Best of all, there’s no hard rule to creating your own yogurt parfait – you can throw in whatever you favor or is in season!
