This is a quick and easy seasonal variation of a parfait we traditionally make during the holidays. Summer fruit and a high quality granola make this a quick breakfast for rushed mornings or a healthy alternative to afternoon snacks.
Boozy Nectarine and Yogurt Parfait
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Make the Compote
Peel and dice three of the nectarines.
In a small saucepot, add diced nectarines, sugar, and brandy. Over medium-high heat, reduce the mixture until it thickens into a compote. About 8 minutes.
Remove compote to a bowl and refrigerate until fully chilled (can be made ahead).
The alcohol burns-off making this dish kid-friendly, however for a completely alcohol-free variation, you can omit the brandy from the compote -
Mix the Yogurt
Add cinnamon to the 32oz yogurt container. Whisk gently until cinnamon is combined and yogurt is creamy. Set aside.
-
Slice and Dice
Remove pits and slice the remaining nectarines.
Fresh peaches make a great substitute if ripe nectarines are not available - just be sure to peel the skins! -
Assemble and Serve
Spoon chilled compote into the bottom of a parfait glass. Add cinnamon-vanilla yogurt then top with granola. Garnish with nectarine slices and mint leaves.
