Frozen Cherry and Carob Oat Parfait


A Frozen Fruit and Oat Parfait is the best Breakfast on a hot Summer morning


Click here for the basic Recipe


Instead of Frozen Blackberries, Raspberries, 
and Banana, I used Frozen Cherries and Banana


Layered between the fruit is Overnight Carob Oats with Chia Seeds 


"My Cup Runneth Over" :)


I was inspired by Chocolate-Covered Katie's Chocolate-Cherry Bomb Oatmeal


With a cherry on top and a tripod of cherries on the side to garnish

  23. Cherries and banana...I don't know if I would like that combo. I'm so picky with my banana pairings - we tolerate each other to an extent, but it's not my favourite fruit, that's for sure. Love the way the parfait looks though!

  29. This is possibly THE most creative breakfast I've seen in a looong time! I eat a hot meal almost every morning, but in 100-degree weather, sweating alongside my breakfast isn't the ideal way to start the day. :-p I'd love to try a frozen parfait. Thanks for inspiring me, Kelsey! xoxo
