Yellow Plum Compote and Lime Soy Yogurt Parfait
The tart lime yogurt was a lovely contrast to the sweet yellow plum compote, making this one of our favorite light summer treats.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup strained soy yogurt from 1&1/2 cups regular soy yogurt
- 1 lime, zest and juice
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup yellow plum compote or peach compote
- bit of granola
- slices of yellow plums and sprig of green (we used stevia, can be also mint or lemon verbena) as garnish
Directions:
For the yellow plum compote
we used Pascale Weeks’ Mirabelle (plum) Jam with vanilla and star anise recipe.
to make the lime soy yogurt:
- Strain 1 & 1/2 cups of soy yogurt through a cheesecloth to remove the extra liquid.
- Add the zest, juice and sugar and mix well.
to make the parfait:
- Place a tablespoon or so of the plum compote in the bottom of a parfait glass.
- Add a layer of granola.
- Add 2-3 tablespoons of the lime yogurt.
- Repeat the layers.
- Top with a few slices of yellow plums and we added a bit of green using stevia leaves
Notes:
You can use any plum to make this tasty compote.
