Ingredients:

1/2 cup frozen blueberries
80g
1 tbsp maple syrup
20g
1/2 cup lowfat cottage cheese
110g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Measure out 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries and let them thaw for a few minutes at room temperature or microwave them for about 20-30 seconds to slightly soften if you prefer.
2. Mix the Syrup and Blueberries:
- In a small bowl, combine the slightly thawed blueberries with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup. Stir gently to coat the blueberries evenly. Set aside to let the flavors meld together.
3. Prepare the Cottage Cheese Mixture:
- In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 cup of low-fat cottage cheese with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir well until the vanilla is fully incorporated, adding a subtle and pleasant aroma to the cottage cheese.
4. Layer the Parfait:
- Take a serving glass or bowl and start by adding a layer of the vanilla-infused cottage cheese at the bottom.
- Spoon a layer of the blueberry maple mixture over the cottage cheese.
- Repeat the layers if you have more of the mixtures left, finishing with the blueberry maple mixture on top.
5. Serve:
- Enjoy your Blueberry Maple Cottage Cheese Parfait immediately for a delightful and healthy snack or breakfast option.

Tips:

- For a smoother texture, use a blender to mix the cottage cheese with the vanilla extract before assembling the parfait.

- You can fresh blueberries instead of frozen if they are in season; just make sure to wash them thoroughly.

- Layer granola or crushed nuts between the blueberry mixture and cottage cheese for an added crunch.

- Add a dollop of Greek yogurt to increase the creaminess and protein content.

- Adjust the amount of maple syrup according to your sweetness preference.
