Strawberry and Peach Parfaits with Maple Granola

Rating

These are also nice for breakfast. Just top them with nonfat vanilla yogurt instead of the frozen yogurt suggested in the recipe.

1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats

1/4 cup almonds, coarsely chopped

1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter

1/3 cup raisins

3 cups sliced hulled strawberries (about 1 1/2 one-pint baskets)

3 cups thinly sliced pitted peeled peaches (about 6 medium)

Nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix oats and almonds in 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Combine 1/4 cup maple syrup and butter in heavy small saucepan. Bring to boil. Pour maple syrup mixture over oat mixture; stir to blend well. Bake 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add raisins to oat mixture; stir to blend. Bake until mixture is golden and crisp, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes longer. Cool granola completely in pan. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
Gently toss strawberries, peaches and remaining 3 tablespoons maple syrup in large bowl to blend. Divide fruit mixture among 6 parfait glasses. Sprinkle each parfait with granola, dividing equally. Top each with scoop of frozen yogurt, if desired, and serve.
