Low carb breakfast berry parfaits

Ingredients

• 2 cups mixed nuts
• 1 tablespoon flax seed (linseeds)
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
• 2 teaspoons coconut oil (melted)
• 1-2 tablespoons honey/maple syrup/low carb sweetener (to taste (optional))
• pinch of salt
• 2 cups frozen blueberries
• 2-3 teaspoons Xylitol (or another sugar alternative)
• 1 tablespoon water
• plain Greek yoghurt
• fresh raspberries (or other fruit of your choice)

Instructions

1. 1

   To make the granola, pre-heat the oven to 180°c and line a baking tray with baking paper/parchment.

2. 2

   Combine all the granola ingredients then tip onto the baking tray and place in the oven.

3. 3

   Allow to bake for 5-10 minutes until the nuts are golden brown. Check on the granola regularly as it can burn easily.

4. 4

   Remove from the oven and allow to chill.

5. 5

   To make the blueberry sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Allow to cook for 5-10 minutes until the berries have released their juice. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

6. 6

   To make the parfaits, layer the yoghurt with the granola, sauce and fresh fruit in a jar/bowl of your choice. If making the parfait in a jar, close with the lid and place in the fridge overnight before serving.
