Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a medium baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Add peanut butter, honey and vanilla extract to a small saucepan and place over low heat; mix to combine and heat until warm. Once warm and well combined, transfer to a medium bowl.
Step 3
Fold in oats and chia seeds into the peanut butter mixture until combined. Spread the oats on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake, stirring halfway through to prevent burning, until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the granola cool. The granola will seem soft, but will harden up once cool. Transfer to an airtight container or jar and store at room temp for up to 3 weeks.
Step 5
For the parfaits, in each of 4 small mason jars or bowls, layer 1/4 cup of yogurt, 1/2 tablespoon of raspberry jam, 1/4 cup of granola, then another 1/4 cup of the yogurt. Top with another 1/4 cup of granola plus a few banana slices and raspberries. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
