Let’s Make Lemon Blueberry Yogurt Parfaits:

The first step is to make the lemon blueberry compote. It is so so simple and has so much amazing flavor! Add the frozen blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice and honey to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil while stirring and then reduce to a gentle simmer. Let reduce for 5 minutes (stir occasionally)
Mix 1 Tbls of room temp water with 1 Tbls of arrowroot powder and add to the saucepan. Simmer 30 seconds more and remove from heat. Mixture will thicken as it cools. You can leave most of the blueberries whole (this is my preference) or you can mash them up a bit. Let mixture cool in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes.
Once the lemon blueberry compote is cooled, you can layer your parfaits. Add the yogurt to the bottom of the jar, sprinkle in the granola and top with the lemon blueberry mixture. Add some fresh lemon zest on top for some added flavor
