Tropical Yogurt Parfait - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups plain yogurt
    1 avocado, chopped
    1 grapefruit, halved
    Pomegranate Syrup
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
    3/4 cup pomegranate juice
    Granola Crumble
    1/2 cup rolled oats
    1 tablespoon butter, melted
    1 tablespoon brown sugar
    1/4 cup coconut, flaked
    1/4 cup almonds, sliced
    1/4 teaspoon allspice
Preparation
    Gently remove the halved grapefruit pieces from the skin and place in a medium bowl. Combine with avocado.
    Prepare pomegranate syrup: Combine sugar and corn starch in a small saucepan, and mix well. Add pomegranate juice. Bring to a boil and simmer gently until reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool.
    Prepare granola crumble: Preheat oven to 325\u00b0F Combine oats, butter, brown sugar, allspice, and almonds, and toss. Spread oat mixture on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake until light brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in coconut and return to oven until mixture is medium brown, about another 5 minutes.
    To make parfaits, layer yogurt in individual dishes, followed by a layer of fruit, then a drizzle of pomegranate syrup, topped with granola crumble. Add another layer of yogurt, fruit, then syrup drizzle, and finish with the granola crumble. Enjoy!
    Note: If your grapefruit is particularly tart, you can sprinkle a bit of sugar, to taste, on the fruit mixture before layering it into the parfait.
