Indulge in a Chia-Infused Golden Kiwi & Matcha Parfait. Refreshing, nutrient-dense, and perfect for guilt-free dessert satisfaction!
Ingredients
- • chia seeds: 1/4 cup
- • almond milk: 1 cup
- • matcha powder: 1 teaspoon
- • golden kiwis: 4, peeled and sliced
- • coconut cream: 1 cup
- • maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- • pistachios: 1/4 cup, chopped
- • fresh mint leaves: for garnish
Instructions
- 1 In a small bowl, combine chia seeds and almond milk. Stir well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to thicken, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping.
- 2 Once the chia pudding has thickened, stir in the matcha powder until it's fully incorporated, creating a vibrant green color.
- 3 In a separate bowl, mix coconut cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Adjust the sweetness to your preference.
- 4 To assemble the parfaits, divide half of the chia matcha mixture among four glasses. Layer with a portion of sliced golden kiwis and a spoonful of the coconut cream.
- 5 Repeat the layers with the remaining chia matcha mixture, golden kiwis, and top with the remaining coconut cream.
- 6 Sprinkle chopped pistachios over each parfait and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Serving Suggestions
- • Enhance your Chia-Infused Golden Kiwi & Matcha Parfait with a drizzle of extra maple syrup or a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for added texture. Pair this refreshing dessert with a cup of herbal tea, such as chamomile or peppermint, to complement its natural flavors. For an extra burst of color and nutrients, consider serving with a side of mixed berries or a small fruit salad.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover parfaits in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to two days. If preparing in advance, keep the components separate and assemble shortly before serving to maintain freshness. The chia pudding and coconut cream can be stored separately in airtight containers for up to three days.
