Introducing: Blueberry Lemon Basil Parfait

Hello, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share my latest creation: the Blueberry Lemon Basil Parfait. This refreshing and unique dessert combines the sweet and tangy flavors of blueberries and lemon with a hint of fresh basil to create a truly delightful treat. Whether you’re looking to impress guests at a dinner party or simply treat yourself to something special, this parfait is sure to please.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 200g Greek yogurt
  • 150g fresh blueberries
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • Handful of fresh basil leaves
  • 50g granola

Be sure to have the following kitchen tools on hand:

  • mixing bowl
  • microplane
  • spoon
  • parfait glasses

To start, zest the lemon using a microplane and set the zest aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, and half of the lemon zest. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Next, thinly slice the basil leaves and stir them into the yogurt mixture. The basil will add a lovely freshness to the parfait that pairs beautifully with the other flavors.

In your parfait glasses, begin layering the yogurt mixture with fresh blueberries. Alternate between the yogurt and blueberries to create a visually appealing parfait.

Once you’ve filled the glasses, top each parfait with a sprinkle of granola for a satisfying crunch. Finally, garnish with the remaining lemon zest for a pop of citrus aroma.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 500g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 125g. Each serving is estimated to be around 150 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to refrigerate the parfaits for at least an hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and create a more cohesive dish.

I hope you give this Blueberry Lemon Basil Parfait a try and enjoy the unique combination of flavors. Feel free to customize it with your favorite fruits or herbs to make it your own. Happy cooking!
