Why We Like It
This sweet treat will hit the spot! Individual yogurt parfaits, with a cookie crust and made in muffin cups…absolutely delicious!
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
Soak the Dates:
|
Add to a small bowl covered with warm water. Let soak for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside. |
Start the Cookie Crust:
|
Add to a food processor or blender along with the dates. Blend until combined into a paste consistency. |
Finish the Cookie Crust:
|
Add to the food processor with the date and honey mixture. Blend until it forms a crumbly dough consistency. Grease the muffin pan with coconut oil or olive oil, and then divide the mixture into 6 of the openings of the muffin pan. Press the crust down into the bottom of each muffin opening, and slightly up the sides to form a cup. (If you put a little coconut oil on your fingers, it will help keep the mixture from sticking to your fingers). Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool slightly. |
Serve and Enjoy!
|
Fill each cookie cup with about 1/4 cup of yogurt, and then top with 2 Tbsp of fruit and a few chopped nuts. |
