This simple yet elegant dish is not only visually appealing but also packed with nutrients. Whether you're entertaining guests or treating yourself, this recipe is sure to impress.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries thoroughly.
- Hull and slice the strawberries into smaller pieces. Set aside.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream.
- Use an electric mixer or a hand whisk to beat the whipping cream until soft peaks form.
- In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, orange zest, and powdered sugar.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture until fully incorporated and smooth. This will give you a light and fluffy texture for the parfait.
- Take 4-6 serving glasses or bowls.
- Start by adding a spoonful of the yogurt-cream mixture into the bottom of each glass.
- Add a layer of mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries) on top of the yogurt mixture.
- Repeat the layers by adding another spoonful of the yogurt-cream mixture followed by another layer of berries.
- Continue layering until the glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of berries on top for garnish.
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve cold and enjoy your refreshing berry parfaits!
Tips:
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup between the layers.
- If Greek yogurt is too thick for your preference, you can substitute it with regular yogurt.
- To add some texture, sprinkle granola or nuts between the layers of yogurt and berries.
- Make sure to wash the berries thoroughly and pat them dry before using them in the parfaits.
- For a more vibrant flavor, let the parfaits chill in the refrigerator for an hour before serving.
By combining the rich creaminess of Greek yogurt, the zesty brightness of orange, and the natural sweetness of fresh berries, these Berry Parfaits offer a delicious ending to any meal. Enjoy them immediately for the freshest flavor, or refrigerate for later. Either way, they are sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
