Rezept-Fragen
- → Wie bleibt das Granola knusprig?
Füge das Granola erst kurz vor dem Servieren hinzu, um die Knusprigkeit zu bewahren und Feuchtigkeit zu vermeiden.
- → Welche Beeren eignen sich am besten?
Frische Erdbeeren, Heidelbeeren und Himbeeren bieten eine gute Balance aus Süße und Frische, es können aber auch saisonale Früchte verwendet werden.
- → Kann ich den Quark ersetzen?
Ja, fettreduzierter Quark oder griechischer Joghurt sind geeignete Alternativen, die eine ähnliche cremige Konsistenz bieten.
- → Wie süße ich das Parfait natürlich?
Ein wenig Honig oder Ahornsirup kann über die Schichten geträufelt werden, um eine dezente Süße hinzuzufügen.
- → Ist das Gericht glutenfrei?
Das hängt vom verwendeten Granola ab. Für eine glutenfreie Variante sollte zertifiziert glutenfreies Granola gewählt werden.
