Peaches and Cream
This neat looking sweet has been shared with us by Bianca from Wholefood Simply. It also doubles as a yummy nutritious breakfast, or even a snack on the run! It will keep you full with the fats from the nuts and yoghurt, and the fibre from the chia seeds. The delicious peach is just a bonus! Enjoy them when they are in season, or use canned peaches if necessary. We have tested using 8 slices of canned peaches in lieu of a fresh peach. You caneasily reduce the quantities to make this a quick and easy sweet for one.
Recipe Tester Feedback: "This was really delightful. The tartness of the yoghurt, the sweetness of the peach and the fine crunch of the chia seeds was a nice way to finish our meal. My kids are not usually too keen on a bowl of yoghurt for dessert, but there was no issue with this one." - Sally-ann
