What’s better than cuddling up in a cozy blanket with an autumn candle and pumpkin spiced granola parfait? In honor of the first day of fall, I created this delightful parfait that has an aroma as rich and earthy as it tastes. Layered with crunchy nuts, a hint of sweetness from the honey, and the taste of fall from the pumpkin and spices, you will feel the seasonal festiveness as you dig in. Take 5 minutes to assemble the parfait in a sealed jar, and wake up to a breakfast treat in the morning! Don’t forget to top with a drizzle of honey and some cinnamon!
