Indulge guilt-free with our Golden Turmeric Mango Coconut Parfaits. A healthy dessert with anti-inflammatory turmeric and fresh tropical fruits.
Ingredients
- • ripe mangoes: 2, peeled and diced
- • fresh coconut milk: 1 cup
- • chia seeds: 3 tablespoons
- • ground turmeric: 1 teaspoon
- • unsweetened shredded coconut: 1/2 cup
- • fresh lime juice: 2 tablespoons
- • pure vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- • raw honey or maple syrup (optional): 1 tablespoon
- • fresh mint leaves: for garnish
Instructions
- 1 Begin by preparing the chia pudding base. In a medium-sized bowl, mix the fresh coconut milk, chia seeds, ground turmeric, vanilla extract, and lime juice. Stir well to combine, ensuring the chia seeds are evenly distributed. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.
- 2 While the chia pudding is setting, prepare the mango layer. Blend the peeled and diced mangoes in a blender until smooth. If your mangoes are not sweet enough, you may add a tablespoon of raw honey or maple syrup to enhance the sweetness. Set the mango puree aside.
- 3 Toast the unsweetened shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until it becomes golden brown and fragrant. Be sure to stir constantly to prevent burning. Once toasted, remove from heat and let it cool.
- 4 Assemble the parfaits by layering the ingredients in clear glasses. Start with a layer of the turmeric chia pudding, followed by a layer of mango puree, and then a sprinkle of toasted coconut. Repeat the layers until the glasses are full, ending with a topping of toasted coconut.
- 5 Garnish each parfait with fresh mint leaves for a burst of green and an aromatic touch. Serve immediately for a refreshing dessert or store in the refrigerator until ready to enjoy.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Exotic Golden Turmeric Mango Coconut Parfaits are perfectly refreshing on their own, but you can enhance the experience by pairing them with a cup of herbal tea or a light, sparkling water with a hint of lime. For an extra touch, you can also serve them alongside a small plate of mixed tropical fruits such as kiwi, papaya, and pineapple, which complement the parfait’s flavors beautifully. For a more indulgent occasion, consider adding a dollop of dairy-free whipped cream on top or a sprinkle of cacao nibs for a touch of chocolatey goodness. These parfaits are versatile, making them an excellent choice for brunch gatherings, afternoon refreshments, or a light dessert after dinner.
Storage Tips
To maintain the freshness and nutritional value of your parfaits, cover them tightly with plastic wrap or store them in airtight containers in the refrigerator. They can be stored for up to 2 days, although the coconut may lose some of its crunch over time. To refresh the texture, you can add a fresh layer of toasted coconut just before serving. Avoid freezing the parfaits, as the texture of the chia pudding and mango puree may become compromised.
