Strawberry And Peach Parfaits With Maple Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8 by 8-inch glass baking dish. Set aside.
• For the filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and arrowroot until smooth. Add the strawberries, peaches and brown sugar. Gently toss until the fruit is coated. Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared pan.
• For the topping: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, oats, almonds, brown sugar, cinnamon, and sea salt. Pulse until mixed. Add the butter. Pulse until the butter is the size of peas. Sprinkle the mixture over the filling and bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the top is light golden. Cool the crumble for 5 minutes.
• Spoon the warm crumble into bowls and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:

• Hull and quarter 1 quart strawberries. Toss with 1 teaspoon sugar in a large bowl. Sprinkle a layer of gingersnap crumbs or graham cracker crumbs in the bottom of parfait glasses. Top with the berries. Mix 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons honey and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, then spoon over the berries.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix oats and almonds in 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Combine 1/4 cup maple syrup and butter in heavy small saucepan. Bring to boil. Pour maple syrup mixture over oat mixture; stir to blend well. Bake 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add raisins to oat mixture; stir to blend. Bake until mixture is golden and crisp, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes longer. Cool granola completely in pan. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
• Gently toss strawberries, peaches and remaining 3 tablespoons maple syrup in large bowl to blend. Divide fruit mixture among 6 parfait glasses. Sprinkle each parfait with granola, dividing equally. Top each with scoop of frozen yogurt, if desired, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss together the oats, coconut and almonds in a large bowl. Whisk together the vegetable oil and honey in a small bowl, then stir into the oats mixture. Spread the mixture in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 17 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely, about 20 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add the dried cranberries, raisins and sunflower seeds.
• Line up 4 parfait, wine or other tall glasses. Carefully spoon a large dollop of yogurt into each and top with a large spoonful of granola. Add a few berries, then drizzle with honey. Repeat the layers once more in each glass. Store extra granola in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
