Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse the blackberries thoroughly under cold water and let them drain in a colander.
- Coarsely chop the almonds using a knife or a food processor.
- Take four serving glasses or bowls. Spoon a 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt into the bottom of each glass.
- Divide the blackberries evenly among the four glasses, placing a portion of the berries on top of the yogurt in each glass.
- Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of flaxseed over the layer of blackberries in each glass.
- Spoon another layer of Greek yogurt (approximately 1/2 cup) over the flaxseed in each glass.
- Top with any remaining blackberries.
- Evenly distribute the chopped almonds over the top layer of yogurt and blackberries in each glass.
- Serve immediately to enjoy a fresh and crunchy parfait, or refrigerate for up to a few hours if you prefer a chilled treat.
Tips:
- Layering: For a visually appealing parfait, layer the ingredients alternately. Start with yogurt at the bottom, followed by a sprinkle of flaxseed, a layer of blackberries, and topped with chopped almonds. Repeat as necessary.
- Chill: For a more refreshing taste, prepare the parfait and chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.
- Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter parfait, consider adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the yogurt before layering.
- Customization: Feel free to customize your parfait by adding other fruits, such as blueberries or strawberries, or substituting the almonds with your favorite nuts.
- Freshness: Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor and nutritional value. If fresh berries are not available, frozen ones can be a good alternative.
There you have it - a delicious and wholesome Blackberry Yogurt Parfait packed with nutrients. It's easy to prepare and makes for a perfect start to your day or a rejuvenating snack at any time. Enjoy the blend of creamy yogurt, sweet blackberries, and the crunch of almonds and flaxseed.
