    Home » Pumpkin Parfait

    Pumpkin Parfait

    This recipe makes a great late night treat. The first reation I got was "this is good for me?" LOVE hearing that. YES, the ingredients in this parfait are so healthy and great for the Fall season. The spices make the squash/pumpkin of your choice taste like pumpkin pie. 

    This dessert/snack has a very pudding like texture. 

    If you make the yogurt ahead of time, you don't have to wait for it to ferment, just use it right away. It gives it more of a pudding texture this way. 

    Also, I made the squash/pumpkin up first. I had baked it for a dinner and then used just 1.5 cups for the dessert. Same with the yogurt. I made the big batch of it for my kids and then used about 1.5 cups for the parfait. 

    Good luck. 

    PARFAIT RECIPE

    note: the list of steps and ingredients looks long. It's really not that bad. 

    Pumpkin Layer {makes about 2 parfaits, you can double it for 4}
    1.5c Pumpkin or Squash, baked {see my recipe}
    ¼ cashew milk or water
    2 heaping Tbls raw local honey
    pinch pumpkin pie spice
    pinch cardamom
    pinch allspice
    pinch sea salt {tiny pinch}
    1tsp sunflower lecithin {optional}

    Yogurt Layer {makes 4-5 parfaits - eat any leftovers as yogurt}
    Alexis' recipe + inside 1 vanilla bean, scraped

    Walnut Crust / Crumble {makes 2 parfaits}
    ⅓c walnuts
    ⅓c maple sugar 

    note: you can use any crust recipe of your choice, you do not have to use this one. There are good ones out there with macademia nuts or almonds with dates or date paste, etc. 

    For the pumpkin parfait, follow the directions for the butternut squash on my blog. When cool, blend the squash in blender with all of the listed ingredients until VERY smooth. 

    For the yogurt layer, follow the recipe and add the vanilla bean to the vitamix while blending yogurt. 

    For the crust or crumbles, depending on where you want your walnuts {on the top of the parfait or in between or on the bottom}, mix all in a small coffee grinder or cusinart mixer until all chopped nicely. 

    Now time to layer the different mixes into a glass jar or a glass of your choice. 

    Enjoy!

1 cube medium hard tofu 
1 tsp turmeric 
Salt and pepper to taste. 
1/2 Tbsp olive oil or other cooking oil 
In a frying pan sauté on medium high heat for 5 minutes. Stirring often. Add garlic or onions or cheese. I added spinach to mine. 😋

    Damn this combo of garlic, ginger and tahini over sautéed potatoes is 💣. I love tahini dressing because of how creamy it gets without using cashews or dairy products. I first sautéed the potatoes in vegan butter. I added a few shallots for fun. THAT’S IT. If you cut them thin enough they cook in just 5-6 minutes on medium high heat. I added raw kale to them for added fiber and minerals. 
Dressing 
2 cloves garlic
1/4 inch piece of fresh ginger
1 whole lemon
2-3 Tbsp sesame oil, 
1 heaping Tbsp tahini
2 Tbsp water
big pinch sea salt. 
blend it all together until creamy and chunk-free. 
Enjoy
