Servings: 2
Equipment
- 1 jar or container
Ingredients
- 1½ cups plant-based vanilla yogurt, unsweetened
- 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter
- 20 fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free, diary-free white chocolate chips *Or your favorite variety
- ½ teaspoon extra virgin coconut oil
Instructions
- Add 12 raspberries to a small container or mason jar. Use a muddler or an equivalent utensil to mash the berries.
- Add in the yogurt, almond butter, and maple syrup. Give it all a good stir. Spread the yogurt into one even layer.
- Melt the white chocolate. Use a glass bowl and microwave the coconut oil and white chocolate for 20 seconds at a time. Give it a stir after every 20 seconds. You can also use the double boiler method over the stove.
- Once the chocolate is creamy, with no chunks, use a spoon to drizzle all of the chocolate over the yogurt. If needed, grab a toothpick and even it out a bit. Chop the remaining raspberries and sprinkle them over the top.
- Cover the container and place it in the fridge for about 30 minutes to an hour and enjoy a hard white chocolate shell! You can also meal prep a few of these and place them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Notes
This recipe makes two servings. Feel free to split this recipe into two containers or eat only half at a time as I do.
Do not freeze this yogurt parfait. It will get too hard.
If you like your yogurt on the sweeter side, add an additional tablespoon of maple syrup[. (2 tablespoons total instead of 1.)
