Keto Red, White And Blue Parfaits

Recipe & content provided by Veronica Culver, The Enchanted Cook

These Red, White And Blue Parfaits make perfect desserts for a Fourth of July Party, summer gathering or anytime. You can assemble the berries and cream a day in advance, and refrigerate ahead of time until you’re ready to sprinkle them with your vanilla crumble.

Organic, low-sugar berries are layered with homemade sweet vanilla coconut cream and topped with a vanilla shortbread crumble. Red, White And Blue Parfaits are tasty little refreshing treats–just enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. Plus, they’re dairy free and have no added sugar, making them ideal for a low-carb or keto lifestyle.

This recipe for Red, White And Blue Parfaits fills 14 3-ounce mini dessert cups (with the possibility of some cream left over for future use, depending on how much you choose to use in each dessert.)

Bonus tip: Bookmark this recipe for the Sweet Vanilla Cream part. I keep a mason jar in my refrigerator to add to my morning coffee. It makes for a delicious non-dairy creamer.

Ingredients:

• 1 pint fresh organic blueberries
• 1 1/2 cups fresh organic strawberries, chopped into small pieces

1. Make the Sweet Vanilla Coconut Cream: In a bowl, add coconut milk and whip with a mixer until thick and frothy. Add sweetener and vanilla, and mix again until blended. Set aside.
