Keto Coconut Yogurt Parfait with Chia & Nuts

Not every keto breakfast needs to be hot, heavy, or savory. Sometimes, we wake up wanting something light, refreshing, and just a little bit sweet—and that’s exactly where this Keto Coconut Yogurt Parfait comes in.

We came up with this one during a warmer spell when eggs just weren’t doing it for us. We had a tub of unsweetened coconut yogurt, some leftover chia seeds, and a handful of roasted nuts in the pantry. Layered up in a jar, it turned into something we couldn’t get enough of—cool, creamy, crunchy, and so satisfying.

This parfait is a dream for those mornings when you want something nourishing and quick, but still crave texture and flavor. It’s loaded with healthy fats, fiber, and a touch of sweetness without the sugar rush. We love to prep a couple of jars in advance and stash them in the fridge for an easy grab-and-go meal or snack.

Whether you’re dairy-free or just need a break from eggs, this breakfast is proof that keto can be cool, light, and just as comforting.

• 1 cup unsweetened coconut yogurt

Mix the Base

Let It Sit (Optional)

1. For a thicker texture, let the mixture sit for 10–15 minutes so the chia seeds can bloom. You can also prep this step the night before.

Top It Off

1. Finish with a few fresh berries or a little extra chopped nuts if you’re keeping it lower-carb. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
