Coconut Cream Parfait

I wanted to make a delicious, filling, healthy treat for my kids after school.  A coconut cream parfait is the perfect treat.  It is layered with fresh berries, whipped coconut cream, a secret chocolate sauce and gluten free granola.

First, I layered the fruit cups with sliced strawberries.

Then, I added the blackberries.  You can add blueberries instead.

Then, I added some gluten free granola.  I used Purely Elizabeth.  It is gluten free, vegan and free of refined sugars.

Then, topped with coconut whipped cream.  I did not add sweetener so it looks a bit thicker in the picture below, but adding sweetener makes it light and pillowy.

Then, add a sprinkle of granola, and more berries.  Putting the strawberries around the sides makes a lovely presentation.

Now for the secret chocolate sauce.  I top it use Barlean's Essential Woman's chocolate mint swirl.  It is full of healthy omega-3 oils and sweetened with xylitol.  It is also vegan.  

For the final touch, place a whole strawberry on top!  Now that is basically it!  A delicious vegan, gluten free coconut cream parfait.  This is perfect for Easter or any special event!

If you are grain free, you can use a grain free granola.  My family loved these healthy after school snacks and I know you will too!
