Pick up an Amazin’ Granola Variety Box and get creative with this series of recipes featuring fun-size packs of our Amazin’ treats! We kick things off this week with this Tropical Salted Caramel Chia Parfait Recipe, featuring our Salted Gula Melaka Granola.

 

What’s not to love about the taste of Salted Caramel? A little salty, a little sweet, a whole lot satisfying – and it goes well with everything! As delicious as it is, however, it often has to stay firmly on the “eat rarely” list due to its lack of nutrition. After all, true Salted Caramel is little more than sugar and fat (empty calorie alert)!

Well, worry no longer with this absolutely delicious Tropical Salted Caramel Chia Parfait! All the delicious flavour of Salted Caramel, with all the nutrition of our own freshly baked granola, whole yogurt, and fresh fruit! And, we’ve given it some local flair by using Gula Melaka and tropical fruit!
