This blackberry parfait is a delightful raw vegan breakfast made with fresh blackberries, vegan yogurt and raw buckwheat groats. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
Soak the buckwheat groats for 4-8 hours (I soak mine overnight) in a bowl of water to soften. The water should easily cover the buckwheat by a couple of inches.
Next, rinse and drain the buckwheat groats thoroughly. They'll be slimy, this is normal. Just rinse them until they are no longer slimy. Set aside.
Layer up the parfait by adding 1 tablespoon of blackberry jam to the bottom of each glass. Next, add some blackberries followed by a layer of vegan yogurt. Top with a heaped tablespoon of buckwheat groats. The last layers are jam followed by a final layer of vegan yogurt.
Top each parfait with a couple of blackberries and a fresh mint leaf or two. Enjoy!
Notes
Once the buckwheat is rinsed spread them onto a piece of paper towel to absorb any excess water and pat dry before using.
