Fruit and Walnut Cups: Dessert made Easy and Healthy
This is a
very simple dessert and it would never fail you. Many times, it rescued me from
my last minutes dessert disasters. I
usually make this dessert when I invite many people over for lunch and have
gone overboard with main courses or too tired to make any puddings. Basically
when I am too deep into showing off!!!!
This light dessert is full of goodness of walnuts, freshness of seasonal
fruits and healthy oat biscuits and decadence of whipped cream. So after too
much eating, it sort of gives a break to the over eating and fills you up with
freshness of fruit and nuts.
I have
also tried this one for breakfast and it was an instant hit with kiddos and
adults alike. You get to feed oat, walnuts and fresh fruits minus any sugar-
without any fuss to any age group. It takes about 30 minutes to make for 10
people. What more do you want?
This is
my all time favorite. I hope you like it too! Enjoy making this wonderful
dessert by me!
Ingredients (to make for 10 to serve in small dessert
glasses)
30-walnuts (3 for each person but you can add more) broken you can use a
blender to make dust as well. I made dust of the walnuts
15-oats biscuit (1 and ½ for each person, but you can add more) made
into crumbles (I used Mcvities digestives full fat version)
10-strewberry, thinly slices
1-orange, skin off and made in to dices
7/8-any other berry
2-sharron fruit, thinly sliced
Sufficient sweet mango, small diced
1/4-cup orange juice (or any other fruit juice)
Little vanilla extract
20/25-tablespoon fresh whipping cream (homemade or store bought. I used homemade.
Ideally 2 table spoon for each glass/person)
1. Mix the broken/dust walnuts with oats biscuit crumble.
Combine well
2. Add little orange juice with the walnut and biscuit
mix to make it little moist but not soggy. It should remain loose and crumbly. Keep
aside
3. Mix all the mix fruits together
4. Add vanilla with whipping cream or add vanilla in
fresh cream and whip until soft peak rises. Do not over do it and make it hard
5. Now the layering for the dessert
6. Take a dessert glass or anything tall ( bowl would do
too but for layering something glass like is nicer and easy)
7. First layer :
make with walnut and oat biscuit mix
8. Second layer: Top the first layer with one tablespoon of
whipped cream and spread the cream around the glass
9. Thirst layer :
Top the second layer with fruits
10.
Fourth layer: top the third layer with again walnut and biscuit
mix
11. Fifth layer :
Top the fourth with one tablespoon of whipped cream and spread the cream around
the glass
12.
Sixth layer: top the fifth layer (of cream) with fruits. Add the
fruits nicely as this would be your last layer
13.
Chill for 1 hour before
serving
14.
Serve as dessert or
breakfast or even for picnic
Note: Layering is done to make it look beautiful. If you are
eating at home on a Friday night while watching a movie, you might want to just
put all ingredients together and combine and just enjoy the dessert without the
hassle of layering
