Cherries and Yogurt Parfait

Ingredients

3 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Preparation

1
In a large bowl combine the yogurt, honey, and vanilla; mix well and set aside.
2
Mix the oats and the cocoa together and pour in a skillet.
3
Toast the oats over medium heat for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool completely and set aside.
4
Put the pitted cherries in the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes, or until soft. Cool completely.
5
Assemble the parfaits by pouring a 1/2 cup of yogurt in each glass.
6
Spoon over some of the oats, top with half of the cherries, then pour the rest of the yogurt on top, and finish off with more oats and cherries.
7
Put the parfaits in the fridge for a couple of hours before serving.
8
I partially froze mine and pretended that I was eating ice cream with the rest. In fact, I urge you to freeze it because it is that much better when frozen.
