Pumpkin Pie Parfaits

Posted on August 29, 2023August 29, 2023 By Admin No Comments on Pumpkin Pie Parfaits

These gorgeous pumpkin pie parfaits are prepared with layers of cream cheese, crumbled graham crackers, and, of course, exquisite whipped cream. They resemble a pumpkin cheese cake. It’s also simple enough to consume as a snack at any time of day, delicious enough to serve as dessert, and nutritious enough to eat for breakfast.

Ingredients

For the Pumpkin Layer

  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree (make sure it’s pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

For the Cashew Cream Layer

  • 1 cup raw cashews, soaked for at least 4 hours and drained
  • 1/4 cup coconut cream (the thick part from a can of full-fat coconut milk)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-4 tablespoons plant-based milk (as needed for consistency)

For the Crunchy Granola Layer

  • 1 cup gluten-free granola (check for vegan and GF options)
  • Chopped nuts or seeds (optional, for extra crunch)

Instructions

Prepare the Pumpkin Layer:

In a bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

Prepare the Cashew Cream Layer

  1. In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, coconut cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  2. Blend until smooth, adding a little plant-based milk as needed to achieve a creamy consistency.

Assemble the Parfaits

In serving glasses or jars, layer the pumpkin mixture, cashew cream, and gluten-free granola. Repeat the layers as desired.

Add Crunch

Top the parfaits with an extra sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, chopped nuts, seeds, or additional granola for added crunch and flavor.

Serve

Serve the pumpkin pie parfaits immediately, or refrigerate for a few hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
