Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Fresh strawberries
- 0.5 cup Fresh blueberries
- 0.5 cup Fresh raspberries
- 1.5 cups Plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Stevia or erythritol (optional, to taste)
- 0.25 cup Chopped almonds or walnuts
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened coconut flakes
Directions
Step 1
Rinse all the berries thoroughly under cool water. Pat them dry with a clean towel. Remove the stems from the strawberries and slice them into quarters.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. If desired, sweeten the yogurt mixture with stevia or erythritol to taste. Mix well until the sweetener is completely dissolved.
Step 3
In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the chopped almonds or walnuts and unsweetened coconut flakes, stirring frequently until they start to turn golden brown and release their natural oils and aroma. This should take about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Step 4
To assemble the parfait, use four small glasses or dessert bowls. Start by adding a spoonful of the Greek yogurt mixture to the bottom of each glass.
Step 5
Add a layer of mixed berries over the yogurt, distributing them evenly among the glasses.
Step 6
Repeat the layers of Greek yogurt and berries until all the ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of yogurt on top.
Step 7
Sprinkle the toasted nut and coconut mixture over the top layer of yogurt for a crunchy topping.
Step 8
Serve the parfaits immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy as a refreshing low-carb dessert or snack!
