Ingredients Required For Cherry Cobbler Parfait

Cherries

Cornflour | Cornstarch

We need a bit to thicken the cherry sauce.

Maple Syrup | Honey

Brown Sugar

To add some to the cobbler topping.

Greek Yogurt

Plain Greek Yogurt is what we will be using for this parfait. If you don’t have Greek Yogurt, use normal plain yogurt. Remove the extra water from the yogurt by straining it in a cheese or thin cotton cloth. Cover a strainer or big sieve with a clean cotton cloth.I like to use  gent’s handkerchief for this purpose as it’s just the right size. Pour the yogurt in the handkerchief.  Cover with the edges of the hankerchief. To make the process a bit fast, fold a few of kitchen roll | paper towels and place it over the covered yogurt. Place something heavy on it like a pestle and mortar or a  small brick or stone. This presses the yogurt down and the paper absorbs the water.

Vanilla Extract

Adds flavour to the parfait. Can add also some lemon zest if you wish.

Cinnamon Powder

Adds a lovely earthy flavour.

Clove Powder

Adds some warming flavour.

Almonds

Roughly chopped or flakes. Can replace the almonds with any nuts of your choice. We will be adding some as a topping.

Lemon Juice

Add 1-2 tbsp of fresh lemon juice to the cherry sauce or filling. Brings out the flavour of the sauce.

Notes

• You can use normal plain yogurt but remove the excess water by straining the yogurt in a cheese cloth or a fine sieve.
• If you don't want to make the oat flour topping or crumble then just break up your favourite cookies and use that instead.
• You can use ready made cherry filling, but again the sugar content may be high.
• Use quick or old fashioned oats for the cobbler topping.
