Description
Peaches & Cream Parfait is an easy to make, delicious dessert without any refined sugar. I have mixed fresh whipping cream and cream cheese to give the classic dessert a slightly different flavour.
Ingredients
4 peaches ripe
½ cup granola
¾ cup fresh cream
¼ cup cream cheese
1 tsp lemon zest
4 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
extra maple syrup optional
Instructions
PREPARE THE CREAM MIXTURE
1. Add whipping cream, cream cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract and lemon zest in a mixing bowl.
2. Whisk the mixture till it becomes light and fluffy.
3. Cover the bowl with a lid or cling film and chill the cream mixture for at least 30 minutes.
PREPARE THE PEACHES & CREAM PARFAIT
1. Take 4 glasses or bowls.
2. Cut the peaches into slices or chunks. I kept all 4 separate as one peach is for each serving.
3. Take the cream mixture out of the fridge.
4. First, add a few chunks or slices at the bottom of the glasses.
5. Top with some cream mixture. I roughly divided the cream mixture into 8 parts. Add one part each in the glasses or bowls.
6. Add more peach chunks or slices.
7. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon each of granola.
8. Add cream mixture, 1 part each.
9. Top with remaining peach slices or chunks.
10. Sprinkle some granola.
11. Peaches and cream parfaits are ready for serving.
Notes
Add seeds and nuts if your granola doesn’t have any.
Can use fresh cream only if you want to.
I have not tried this dessert with canned peaches.
Cut the peaches just before serving as they can turn brown if left for long.
