Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until thickened.

In a blender or food processor, blend the avocados, lime/lemon juice, Greek yogurt, and honey until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness as desired.

3. Layer the parfaits

Prepare your glasses or jars. Spoon a layer of chia pudding into the bottom, then a layer of avocado cream, followed by a layer of mixed berries. Repeat layers if desired.

4. Add toppings and serve

Top parfaits with granola and shredded coconut. Serve chilled.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

For extra fiber, consider mixing in 1–2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed to the chia pudding before chilling. This not only boosts fiber content but also adds a subtle nutty flavor. Feel free to swap out vanilla extract or sweeteners to suit your taste. Be sure to chill the pudding long enough for a creamy, pudding-like consistency.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Swap the mixed berries for other seasonal fruits such as mango, kiwi, or pineapple to create new flavors. To make the recipe vegan, use plant-based yogurt and a sweetener like agave syrup instead of honey. Add a handful of pumpkin or sunflower seeds on top for extra crunch and nutrition.

Serviervorschläge

Serve the parfait chilled in clear glasses or jars to showcase the beautiful, layered colors. This parfait makes an excellent light breakfast, a refreshing afternoon snack, or a healthy dessert alternative after meals.
