Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup crushed gingersnap cookies or cinnamon granola for the crumble
Instructions
- Make the Pumpkin Layer: In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Blend until completely smooth.
- Chill the Layer (Crucial Step for assembly): Transfer the pumpkin-cottage cheese mixture to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will thicken it, making it easy to create clean layers.
- Assemble the Parfaits: In two glasses, create alternating layers. Start with a layer of the chilled pumpkin mixture, followed by a layer of Greek yogurt, and then a sprinkle of the gingersnap or granola crumble.
- Repeat the layers until the glasses are full.
- Serve immediately for the best crunchy texture from the crumble.
Notes
- Chilling the pumpkin mixture ensures easy layering.
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for best results.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup.
