Ingredients
  

For the crumble topping:

  • 1/2 cup Cassava or Coconut Flour
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Oil or Avocado Oil (melted)
  • 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • pinch Cinnamon
  • pinch Sea Salt

For the pudding:

  • 1 medium/large Avocado

  • 1/4 tsp dried Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp Nutmeg (use Mace for AIP)
  • 1.25 tsp Cinnamon

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Mix the ingredients for the crumble together in a bowl, then spread out into a thin layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool. Then crumble into a bowl. 

For the pudding:

  • Meanwhile, mix everything together in a large bowl with an immersion blender or hand mixer until smooth. Note: If you don't have either of those, use the back of a fork to mash the avocado and then add the rest of the ingredients in and mix.

For the Coconut Whipped Cream:

  • Whisk the coconut cream and maple syrup in a bowl until mixed well.

For the Parfaits:

  • Layer some crumble, then whipped cream, then pumpkin into a jar or serving dish. Repeat until the jars are full.
