Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut 4 phyllo dough sheets into 1-inch squares. Toss the squares with 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, 3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon until evenly coated. Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp, stirring halfway through.
- Step 2: Meanwhile, make rosemary honey syrup by combining 1/4 cup water, 2 tbsp honey, 2 fresh rosemary sprigs, and 1 tsp lemon juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove rosemary and let cool.
- Step 3: In four serving glasses, layer 1/2 cup Greek yogurt mixed with 1/4 cup honey, topped with a generous handful of phyllo-walnut crumble. Repeat layers once more.
- Step 4: Drizzle each parfait with the cooled rosemary honey syrup just before serving for a fragrant, sweet finish.
