The parfaits were a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices to the coconut granola.

I had trouble finding unsweetened coconut milk. I ended up using sweetened coconut milk, which made the parfaits too sweet.

The parfaits were a bit runny for my taste. I would recommend using a thicker yogurt.
