Matcha Parfait

This is one of those breakfast recipes that are so delicious, you feel somewhat guilty for eating something sweet for breakfast. The parfait is from Koyo matcha and my favourite coconut yoghurt, but you can make it with any yogurt you find, I’m sure that soy yoghurt and sheep’s yogurt will be equally delicious. Just be aware to get them unsweetened. Parfait has a soft velvety texture and the taste is incredible. In the layers in between I put plain oats, but I think the ideal combination would be with matcha granola and kale, but unfortunately, I didn’t have any. Try any other granola you have at home. I decorated it with raspberries and coconut chips, but sunflower or pumpkin seeds and cacao nibs would also fit. I’m sure it will become one of your favourite breakfasts and maybe even dessert.

For the matcha parfait

– 4 tablespoons of yogurt (coconut, soy or whatever you ve got available)

Preparation

Blend all the parfait ingredients in the multi or the food processor until they are well blended and they turn into a cream with a light green colour.

Spread a layer of 2 spoons of oatmeal or granola in a relatively short glass. For the next layer, spread about 2 spoons of parfait. Continue with a layer of oats and then parfait once more. Garnish with a few fruits cut into smaller pieces and toppings of your choice.
