When I hear pineapple, I immediately think of kicking back on a tropical beach with a nice sea breeze blowing through my hair. 

And then I wake up and I’m in my own kitchen. But not to worry, because I can bring the topics anytime by whipping up my Pineapple Yogurt Jello Parfait. 

It’s got all the “beachy” flavors, like pineapple and coconut. It’s creamy and light and refreshing.

Pineapple Yogurt Jello Parfait ingredients

  • Plain Greek yogurt – I like Chobani brand Greek yogurt but you can use any type of yogurt you like. You might even want to try a pineapple-flavored yogurt. 
  • Pineapple Jello mix
  • Boiling 2ater
  • Toasted coconut
  • Maraschino cherries for garnish

How to toast coconut

I’m a huge fan of toasted coconut. In fact, when I do need to make toasted coconut, I like to toast more than I plan on using.

I store the left-over coconut in a ziptop bag or a small mason jar in my refrigerator for up to a month. That way I have toasted coconut to sprinkle on salads, soups, and even other desserts. 

  1. Spoon sweetened coconut into a small stove-top skillet.
  2. Turn the skillet on high. 
  3. At about 1-2 minutes, stir the coconut, turn the heat to medium if it’s browning too fast. 
  4. Watch it closely and stir it frequently. 
  5. Once the coconut starts to brown it will brown very quickly.
  6. Immediately remove the coconut from the hot skillet so it doesn’t burn. 
  7. I like to pour it out onto a paper plate and let it cool completed before I use it or store it in the refrigerator. 
  8. If you are toasting a large amount to sweetened coconut you might want to use the oven method. You can learn how to toast coconut in the oven by checking out my Caramel Coconut Samoa Brownies recipe.

KRAZY KITCHEN MOM TIPS for making Pineapple Yogurt Jello Parfaits

  • Make sure the jello and water mixture comes to room temperature before you add the Greek yogurt.
  • I also like to take the Greek yogurt out of the refrigerator for about 30 minutes so it becomes room temperature too.
  • The mixture will be very runny when you pour it into the dessert dishes.  Don’t worry it will firm up in the refrigerator.
