This orange yogurt parfait is an easy, healthy snack full of bright citrus flavor. Mandarin oranges and yogurt come together in this unique treat.
Mandarin oranges are such a sweet treat. I keep them in my produce drawer year-round for a quick, healthy snack.
This easy orange yogurt parfait recipe features freshly sweetened orange yogurt with a topping of chopped mandarins. Granola or chopped nuts are stirred into the yogurt for a delicious crunch. The combination of yogurt and citrus fruit is so refreshing.
The best way to get the juice from an orange is with a citrus juicer. I like to use my lemon juicer with mandarin oranges because they fit perfectly in the juicer. Use a small bowl or glass to catch the juice.
Variations
For a stacked presentation in this orange yogurt parfait, you can serve this in a taller parfait cup. Spoon half of the yogurt into the glass, followed by a layer of chopped mandarins, and repeat.
Other toppings could include raisins, fresh blueberries, or a sprinkle of shredded coconut. Fresh orange zest will give it an extra boost of flavor.

This looks so tasty! Is Cuties a variety of mandarin or a company that sells mandarins? I’ve never come across this before, so I’m very curious!
Ally, Cuties is a company that sells mandarins. They’re so sweet and delicious!
