Berry Honey Yogurt Parfait

1.If using the egg for added protein, prepare a quick egg custard: In a small saucepan, whisk the egg with 1/4 cup of milk or water until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool completely before using.

2.In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons of honey and vanilla extract (if using). Stir well until smooth and creamy.

3.In two serving glasses or bowls, begin layering the parfait: start with a spoonful of the honey-yogurt mixture at the bottom.

4.Add a layer of fresh blackberries over the yogurt.

5.If using the cooled egg custard, spoon a thin layer over the blackberries for extra creaminess and protein.

6.Repeat layering with the remaining yogurt mixture and blackberries, finishing with a few blackberries on top.

7.Drizzle a little extra honey over the top layer and sprinkle lightly with ground cinnamon if desired.

8.Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving for a chilled parfait.
