Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Peaches
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Granulated monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 2 cups Plain unsweetened Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Low-sugar granola
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh mint
Instructions
Peel the peaches and dice them into small cubes.
In a small saucepan, combine the diced peaches, grated fresh ginger, water, monk fruit sweetener, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Cook the peach mixture over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are soft and slightly syrupy. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
To assemble the parfaits, layer each serving glass starting with a spoonful of the peach compote, followed by Greek yogurt, and a sprinkle of granola. Repeat the layers until the glass is filled, ending with a sprinkle of granola on top.
Garnish each parfait with a sprinkle of chopped fresh mint for a pop of color and flavor.
Chill the assembled parfaits for 10 minutes before serving, or enjoy immediately.
