Fig, Raspberry, Banana and Chocolate Mousse Parfait

Ingredients:

Fig and carob layer
11/2 cups dried figs, stemmed and sliced in quarters
2/3 cup carob powder
1/4 cup raw almond butter
1/3 cup
Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Blue Agave syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon Himalayan salt
Ingredients:
Banana layer
2-3 ripe bananas, mashed
1-2 tablespoons orange zest
2-3 tablespoons
Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Blue Agave syrup

Ingredients:
2 baskets raspberries
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons
Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Blue Agave syrup
1/3 cup sliced, raw almonds

Method:

For the fig and carob layer, place 11/4 cups figs, carob powder, almond butter, agave syrup, vanilla, cinnamon and Himalayan pink salt in the work bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. (You may need to add a few tablespoons of water to get a smoother texture).  Add more water and or agave syrup, to taste, and continue blending.  Stir in the reserved 1/4 cup figs.

For the banana layer, mash the bananas by hand or they will become too liquid. Stir in the orange zest and drizzle over it the agave syrup, adjust the taste.  

These two layers can be made up to 4 hours in advance and stored, covered and refrigerated, to be assembled just before serving.

To assemble the parfaits:

Toss 1  1/2 baskets of raspberries with lemon juice and agave syrup.

Use half the fig and carob mouse evenly divided in the bottom of 4 tall glasses. Top with half the raspberry lemon mixture. Divide the sliced almonds over the raspberries (this will help create a barrier for the banana layer). Place half the banana layer over the almonds. Repeat the layering with the remaining of each and garnish with the reserved raspberries and additional orange zest, as you wish.


Makes 4 parfaits.
