Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Lay 2 phyllo dough sheets flat and brush each sheet lightly with 1 tbsp melted unsalted butter. Stack and then crumble into small flakes. Spread the flakes on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp, stirring halfway through.
- Step 2: While phyllo bakes, toast 1 cup chopped walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring often until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from heat.
- Step 3: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt with 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon; stir until smooth.
- Step 4: To assemble parfaits, spoon a layer of Greek yogurt mixture into 4 serving glasses (about 1/4 cup each), then sprinkle 2 tbsp toasted walnuts and 2 tbsp baked phyllo flakes on top. Repeat layers once more.
- Step 5: Drizzle 1/4 cup honey evenly over the assembled parfaits just before serving for a sweet, floral finish.
