Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, mix 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup sliced almonds, 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, and 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon until crumbly. Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes until golden and fragrant. Let cool.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, beat 8 oz softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup honey, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. Step 3: Gently fold 10 finely chopped fresh basil leaves into the cheesecake mixture.
  4. Step 4: To assemble, spoon a layer of almond crumble into 4 serving glasses, followed by a layer of cheesecake filling, then 1/2 cup sliced fresh strawberries. Repeat layers ending with strawberries on top.
  5. Step 5: Chill parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to let flavors meld and texture set.
