Method
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, butter, honey, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir to coat the oats.
- Spread the oats over a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the oats are golden brown, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool.
- When the oats are cool, prepare the yogurt and pumpkin. To make the yogurt layer, combine the plain yogurt with 1/2 to 1 tablespoon honey and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Use a hand mixer to blend the ingredients until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin, 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of honey, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Whisk to mix.
- Use 8-ounce cups to build the yogurt parfaits. Start by adding a layer of granola on the bottom of each cup. Top the granola with a layer of pumpkin, a layer of yogurt, another layer of pumpkin, and another layer of yogurt. Finish by sprinkling the remaining granola on top of each cup.

Notes
For the best texture, use old fashioned rolled oats. Toast the oats evenly by stirring halfway through baking. Let the granola cool completely before layering to maintain crispness. Chill the yogurt mixture before layering for an extra refreshing parfait. Taste and adjust sweetness in the pumpkin and yogurt mixtures to balance flavors.
