Divine Date & Fig Yogurt Parfait
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Makes 2 large or 4 small parfaits
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 0 minutes
- 2 cups natural yogurt
- 2/3 cup coconut milk
- 3-4 tablespoons date syrup or honey (according to taste)
- 4 tablespoons chia seeds
- 6 figs
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- Mint for decoration
Step 1 - Whisk the yogurt, coconut milk and half of the date syrup together. Switch to a spatula or a spoon and stir in the chia seeds. Add the rest of the date syrup and stir in a circular motion once only (this gives you a nice ribbony effect).
Step 2 - Slice the figs in half. Spoon some of the yogurt into the glasses filling it a third or a quarter of the way. Press the figs against the side of the glass cut side facing outwards and fill with the yogurt and top with the blueberries and mint.
