Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 3 medium Fresh peaches
- 0.5 cups Macadamia nuts
- 4 tablespoons Honey
- 0.75 cups Granola
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Wash the peaches, then peel and dice them into small cubes. Place the diced peaches in a bowl and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.
2. Roughly chop the macadamia nuts into bite-sized pieces for added crunch.
3. In another bowl, mix Greek yogurt with a teaspoon of vanilla extract and two tablespoons of honey until smooth and well combined.
4. Begin assembling the parfaits in four clear glasses or jars. Start with a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom (about 2-3 tablespoons).
5. Add a layer of diced peaches on top, followed by a sprinkle of macadamia nuts and granola.
6. Drizzle a small amount of honey over the granola layer to add sweetness, then repeat the layers with yogurt, peaches, macadamia nuts, and granola until the glasses are full.
7. Finish each parfait with a drizzle of honey on top and a garnish of fresh mint leaves, if desired.
8. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving for an extra-cold dessert.
