Breakfast Dessert Recipe Caramelised apple, walnut and yoghurt parfait Michael Catling28 June 202504 views Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast? These low fat, high protein yoghurt parfaits are super simple to make and are embellished with honey, cinnamon and ginger. This is a trio I never seem to tire of: apples, cinnamon and ginger. It’s a classic combination and one I’ve relied on many times when making porridge, crumble or strudel. All three dishes are what you might bookmark for the winter months, so this recipe is one for the summer. The parfaits are layered with Skyr yoghurt, raisins and caramelised apples, which have been coated in a ginger and cinnamon spice mix. Top with toasted walnuts and a drizzle of honey for a light and healthy breakfast. How To Make My Caramelised Apple, Walnut And Yoghurt Parfait Chef Catling’s recipe notes Recipe: Caramelised apple, walnut and yoghurt parfait Frequently asked questions Tips & Notes To Know Use tart, crisp apples: Granny Smith, Pink Lady or Braeburn apples hold their shape and give that perfect sweet-sour balance. Keep the skin on: Peeling the apple skin off means throwing away most of the fibre.

Skyr is a super healthy Icelandic yoghurt that is fat free, low in sugar, and packed with protein and probiotics. It has a rich and creamy texture similar to Greek yoghurt, but with a milder, slightly tart flavour. Around four cups of skimmed cow’s milk is required to produce a cup of Skyr, which is pasteurised, has live cultures added, and is then strained. One serving (100g) contains between 9-11g of protein depending on brand. You can find Arla Skyr in all major supermarkets. Can I Substitute Honey For Maple Syrup? Maple syrup is not quite as sweet as honey, so you may want to use slightly more than the amount of honey dictated in the recipe. However, they are basically like for like with the only major difference being the price.
