Tropical Bliss: Pineapple Coconut Parfait Recipe

Today’s Exotic Dessert: Pineapple Coconut Parfait

Growing up in a tropical climate, the flavors of pineapple and coconut always bring me a sense of nostalgia and warmth. Today, I am excited to share with you a unique and exotic dessert recipe that combines these two beloved ingredients in a refreshing and delightful way.

Ingredients:

• 200g fresh pineapple chunks
• 150ml coconut cream
• 50g toasted shredded coconut
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp ginger powder
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp lime zest
• for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• saucepan
• ramekins

To start, combine the coconut cream, honey, vanilla extract, ginger powder, cinnamon, and lime zest in a mixing bowl. Whisk them together until well combined. In a saucepan, heat the mixture over low heat until it is warm but not boiling. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Next, assemble your parfait by layering fresh pineapple chunks and toasted shredded coconut in ramekins. Pour the warm coconut cream mixture over the layers. Repeat the layers until the ramekins are filled to the top.

Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set and allow the flavors to meld together. Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves for a burst of freshness.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 500g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 125g. One serving of this pineapple coconut parfait is approximately 200 calories.

A unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a little extra toasted shredded coconut on top just before serving. It adds a crunchy texture and enhances the coconut flavor in every bite.

I hope you enjoy making and savoring this tropical delight as much as I do. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite fruits or toppings to make it your own. Happy cooking!
