Ingredients
  

For the Coconut Cream:

1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk (chilled overnight)

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Peach Layer:

3 medium ripe peaches, peeled and diced

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

For Assembly:

1 cup granola (your choice, for added crunch)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Coconut Cream:

    - Chill a mixing bowl in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to facilitate whipping.

      - Once chilled, open the can of coconut milk and carefully scoop out the solid cream, placing it in the chilled bowl (set aside the leftover liquid for smoothies or other recipes).

        - Using an electric mixer, beat the coconut cream on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes or until it becomes light and fluffy.

          - Gradually incorporate the powdered sugar and vanilla extract while continuing to beat until the mixture is fully blended and creamy. Set aside.

            Prepare the Peach Layer:

              - In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, honey or maple syrup, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon if desired.

                - Gently toss the ingredients until the peaches are evenly coated with the mixture.

                  - Allow the mixture to rest for about 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.

                    Assemble the Parfaits:

                      - Select serving glasses or bowls and begin by adding a base layer of granola at the bottom of each container.

                        - Follow with a generous layer of the whipped coconut cream, and then layer the sweetened peach mixture on top.

                          - Continue the layering process until the glasses are filled, ensuring to finish with an elegant dollop of coconut cream on the very top.

                            Garnish and Serve:

                              - Optionally, sprinkle additional granola on the top for an extra crunch and finish with a few fresh mint leaves for a vibrant touch.

                                - Serve immediately for the freshest taste or chill in the refrigerator for up to an hour for a cooler, refreshing dessert.
