Ingredients
1-1/2 c. old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 c. California Walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/4 c. pure maple syrup
2 tsp. butter
2 c. strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 c. blueberries
1 c. kiwifruit, peeled and cubed (about 3 kiwifruit)
2 c. thinly sliced, peeled peaches (about 4 med. peaches)
3 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
2 c. non-fat plain yogurt

Directions:

1. Mix oats and walnuts in 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.

2. Combine 1/4 c. of the maple syrup and butter in small heavy saucepan. Bring to boil. Pour maple syrup mixture over oat mixture; stir to blend well.

3. Bake 10 min. in a 350°F oven, stirring occasionally. Bake until mixture is golden and crisp, stirring occasionally, about 8 min. longer. Cool granola completely in pan. (Can be prepared one week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)

4. Gently toss strawberries, peaches, blueberries, kiwifruit and remaining 3 Tbsp. maple syrup in large bowl to blend. Divide half of the kiwifruit mixture among 6 parfait or wine glasses. Sprinkle each parfait with half the granola mixture, dividing equally. Top each with half the yogurt. Repeat layers. Serve immediately.
