Steps:
- To make the compote, simply place the fruit, sweetener and lemon/lime juice (and vanilla if you're making the strawberry compote) in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the fruit has broken down and the compote has thickened slightly. Keep in mind that it will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Remove the compote from the heat and allow to cool.
- Layer with the Greek yogurt in sealable jars/containers and place in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with melted butter and sprinkle both sides with granulated sugar. Lay tortillas over 6 jumbo muffin cups (tortillas will overlap). Bake until tortillas are soft and pliable, 3 minutes. Remove from oven and, with the bottom of a glass, gently press each tortilla into a muffin cup so it folds up and forms a cup shape. Bake until tortillas are crisp and golden at edges, about 12 minutes. Immediately remove tortillas from cups and let cool completely on a wire rack, 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together yogurt and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. In another small bowl, toss together fruit, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and lemon juice. To serve, divide yogurt mixture among cooled tortilla cups and top with fruit.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe fruit. This will ensure that your dessert is flavorful and delicious. If you don't have fresh fruit on hand, you can use frozen fruit that has been thawed.
- Choose a yogurt that you enjoy. There are many different types of yogurt available, so you can find one that suits your taste. Greek yogurt is a good option because it is thick and creamy.
- Sweeten your yogurt to taste. You can use honey, maple syrup, or your favorite sweetener. If you are using fruit that is already sweet, you may not need to add any additional sweetener.
- Layer your parfait in a glass or jar. Start with a layer of yogurt, then add a layer of fruit, and then repeat. You can also add granola, nuts, or other toppings.
- Chill your parfait before serving. This will help to set the yogurt and make it more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Yogurt and fruit dessert cups are a delicious and healthy way to satisfy your sweet tooth. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many different combinations of yogurt, fruit, and toppings to choose from, you can create a unique and satisfying dessert every time.
