This Citrus Berry Parfait with Crunchy Almond Tuile is a modern, low-carb summer dessert that pairs perfectly with bright, citrusy grilled tacos. Inspired by contemporary dessert artistry, it layers a rich, tangy yogurt cream with juicy berries and a crisp almond tuile, playing with temperature, texture, and color. The geometric almond tuile adds a visually stunning crunchy contrast without extra carbs, while lime zest brings a refreshing finish. Build it in see-through glasses for a showstopping presentation and enjoy the cool, creamy, and crisp elements on a warm California evening.
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix sliced almonds, almond flour, egg white, 1/2 tbsp powdered erythritol, and a pinch of salt. Spread thinly on a parchment-lined baking sheet in geometric shapes (e.g., triangles or rectangles). Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp. Cool completely to form almond tuiles.
  3. Meanwhile, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp powdered erythritol, vanilla, and lime zest until smooth and creamy.
  4. Layer the yogurt cream, berries, and a piece of almond tuile in a clear glass or bowl to create visual layers. Repeat for a second layer, finishing with more berries and an extra shard of tuile on top for crunch.
  5. Serve immediately for temperature contrast and maximum texture, or chill briefly if desired. For added elegance, garnish with extra lime zest.
