Method

step 1

To make the chia jam, combine the berries, chia seeds and orange juice in a bowl and stir well. Cover and leave at room temperature for 1-2 hours or chill overnight.
step 2

Use a masher, fork or spatula to mash the jam until smooth-ish. Stir in the maple syrup and leave for 20-30 minutes for the chia seeds to absorb the moisture and expand. This will make more than you need but will keep in the fridge for a week.
step 3

For each parfait, divide half of the yogurt between serving glasses or bowls. Top with layers of the peanut butter and chia jam. Repeat each layer and chill until ready to serve (will keep for up to three days).
step 4

Top with granola and strawberries to serve.
