Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the canola oil, brown sugar
    blend, and sunflower butter until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Coat a medium saucepan with nonstick cooking spray and
    heat over medium-low heat. Add the oats, walnuts, sunflower
    seeds, and flaxseed and toast until slightly brown and fragrant,
    stirring regularly, about 5 minutes. Remove the toasted oat
    mixture from the saucepan and place in a small bowl.
  4. Add the oil mixture into the saucepan and bring to a boil.
    Then quickly turn the heat to low and whisk regularly, until the
    mixture has slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Remove the
    saucepan from the heat and then add the toasted oat mixture.
    Stir to evenly coat.
  5. Spread the oat mixture in a single layer on the prepared
    baking sheet and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Wipe the
    saucepan clean with a paper towel.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together the water, lemon juice,
    vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the apples and toss to
    evenly coat.
  7. In the same saucepan, heat the butter over a medium heat.
    Once the butter has melted, add the apple mixture and cook until
    the apples have slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside to
    slightly cool.
  8. While the apples are cooking, mix the yogurt and lemon zest
    together in a small bowl. In each of 4 parfait glasses, layer 1/4 cup
    of the yogurt, 1/3 cup of the apple mixture, another 1/4 cup of
    yogurt, and top with 1/4 cup of the granola.*
  9. *Chef’s note: The parfaits can be made ahead of time and stored
    in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store the granola separately
    and add just before eating.
