Banana and Berry Parfait
From Dorothy McNett's recipes at www.dorothymcnett.com. If you use Greek All Natural Strained Yogurt (Fage), you do not need to strain it before using.
1 cup yogurt, strained several hours
2 bananas
1/4 cup maple or date syrup, or more to your taste
1 teaspoon lemon juice
fresh raspberries
fresh blueberries
fresh strawberries, sliced
2-3 tablespoons crushed toffee candies, optional of course
Place the yogurt in a yogurt strainer over a bowl and allow to stand several hours in refrigerator to drain away most of the liquids. Discard liquid. Whirl the yogurt, bananas, maple syrup and lemon juice in a blender or food processor to make a fluffy puree. Arrange the yogurt mixture alternately with the berries in beautiful parfait or other stemmed glasses. Serve immediately. Top with the crushed toffee candies.
