Cherry Almond Overnight Oats Parfait

Cherry Almond Overnight Oats Parfait

Ingredients for 1 servings

1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/3 cup unsweetened tart cherry juice, preferably organic
1 banana
1 cup pitted & halved sweet cherries, preferably organic, divided use (you may use frozen)
1 Tbsp toasted sliced almonds
1 tsp pure maple syrup (optional, depending on how tart your cherry juice is)
a few drops pure almond extract

Directions

The night before, combine oats, yogurt, cherry juice, maple syrup, (if using), and almond extract in a bowl; stir well. Fold in ½ cup cherries, (reserve remaining ½ cup), cover, and refrigerate overnight.

Also the night before, peel and slice the banana. Place banana slices in a freezer-safe plastic bag and freeze overnight.

In the morning, place the frozen banana slices in a food processor and puree until a soft-serve consistency forms. Add in the remaining ½ cup pitted & halves cherries and puree just until combined.

Stir the toasted sliced almonds into the oats.

Layer the oats and cherry-banana soft serve in a glass.
