Parfait’s are a favourite breakfast of mine.  They really are so easy to make and you can fill them with just about anything you have  on hand.  This mango and puffed amaranth parfait is a new favourite combination.  Summery, light and so delicious.  It would also make a great healthy dessert. 

Puffed amaranth is available from health food stores and some supermarkets.  They are really tiny, airy puffs and are great for you.  H absolutely loves it but if you think your child wouldn’t go for it, you can combine it with the yogurt and it will go virtually unnoticed.

Everyone loves fries right?  My little guy certainly does.  I don’t make them often because H will go straight for them, and its often hard to get him to eat anything else, but when I do, I love to add herbs and spices.  

These sweet paprika fries make a tasty alternative and being oven roasted they are also better for you. Enjoy… 

1. About 4 large potatoes
2. 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
3. 2 tablespoons olive oil
4. salt
5. parsley to garnish (*optional)

1. Pre-heat the oven to 220 degrees C (420 degrees F). Peel and chop the potatoes into fries that are roughly the same size. Dry them a little using paper towel if they are wet. Toss the potatoes in the olive oil, paprika and salt
2. Place on an oven tray in a singe layer so the potatoes aren’t touching and cook for about 30 minutes (the time really depends on the size of your fries so keep an eye on them). For best results toss them half way through cooking. Sprinkle with parsley if using and serve.

I have been a little obsessed with labneh ever since I made it myself awhile back.  You can find the recipe here if you want to give it ago.   It’s super simple to make but store bought is fine if you want to skip that step.

Labneh is often served in savoury dishes but this time around I’m using it in a healthy dessert.

This is not a super sweet dessert, the sweetness comes for the figs in the raw base and the ripe peaches.  I think its a perfect dessert for the entire family.  

Raw peach tarts with sweet labneh

1. 4 peaches
2. 1 tablespoon maple syrup, honey or your sweetener of choice
3. 1 cup labneh – store bought is fine otherwise see my homemade recipe here
4. 1 teaspoon orange blossom water combined with 1 tablespoon maple – for a quick glaze

1. 1 cup hazelnuts
2. 2 tablespoons coconut oil
3. 5 – 6 dried figs
4. pinch of salt
5. 1 tbls water * only if mixture isn’t coming together

1. Add the hazelnuts, coconut oil, 3 figs and salt to a food processor and pulse. Add extra figs one at a time until the mixture starts getting stuck on your food processor and you can form a ball. If it is still too dry add a little of the water teaspoon at a time.
2. Divide into 4 and press into 4 tart cases. Freeze until you’re ready to fill them.

1. Combine labneh and sweetener and adjust to suit your taste. Set aside.
2. Slice flesh from around the peach and then slice thinly.

1. Take tarts from freezer and bang them on the bench (hard) to get them out. Then fill with labneh and top with peaches. Make a little glaze of maple and orange blossom water to brush over the top. Serve immediately

1. Makes 4 tarts using approx 9cm (4 inch) tart cases.
2. Use 1 peach per tart
