Easy Apple Pie Yogurt Parfait
Apple Pie Yogurt Parfait – A creamy, decadent, no-bake dessert with all the delicious flavors of an apple pie, without the fuss!
The perfect easy dessert for fall gatherings. It’s creamy, crunchy, perfectly sweet, subtly spiced and delicious!
This apple pie yogurt parfait has two layers of each of the following:
cinnamon Greek yogurt
salted caramel sauce – homemade and perfect
cinnamon apples – cooked in the microwave
cookie crumbs –add the perfect crunch
Repeat each layer, add a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzle salted caramel sauce all over the top, sprinkle with cookie crumbs, and it’s DONE!
To make homemade salted caramel sauce you only need five ingredients and 15 minutes. Prepare it ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks. Before using it, place it in a microwave-safe container and heat for about 30-45 seconds.
For the cookie crumbs, I love Biscoff cookies. They are crunchy and have a wonderful cinnamon flavor. Feel free to replace them with shortbread cookies, digestive, Graham crackers, or use granola if you want to enjoy this parfait for breakfast.
Crumbs and fillings can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator in separate containers, so all you need to do is assemble your parfaits right before dinner.
