Instructions
I chose to make each step from scratch. If you have the time and desire I would recommend doing so because it’s amazing! If that’s not your choice, then try even 1 step with my homemade recipes and buy the others at the store!
Mascarpone Cream Layer
Option to follow my recipe for Homemade Mascarpone which takes just over 1 hour to make and 24 hours to chill.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine 1 cup mascarpone, ¼ cup Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoon honey, and 2 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice. Whisk well by hand or use a hand/stand mixer to get it even fluffier. Set aside in the fridge to chill.
Granola Layer
Option to follow my recipe for Homemade Almond Granola. I like this granola for the parfait because it’s not overly sweet and it doesn’t have overpowering flavors that would conflict with the blueberry. If you’re using a store bought granola I’d stick with something basic and nutty.
Set aside ½ cup granola.
Blueberry Pie Filling Layer
Please follow my recipe for Blueberry Pie Filling.
Set aside ½ cup blueberry pie filling.
Assembling the Layers
Using a glass mug or bowl, (so you can see all the beautiful layers), layer the following:
½ cup mascarpone cream mixture
¼ cup granola
¼ cup blueberry pie filling
¼ cup mascarpone cream mixture
¼ cup granola
¼ cup blueberry pie filling
Top with fresh blueberries and optional honey drizzle
