Skinny Strawberry Shortcake Parfait
- 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 cup All-purpose Flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 cups Organic 1% Milk
- 1/2 cups Organic Low-fat Plain Greek Yogurt
- 2 Organic Pastured Eggs
- 1/2 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2/3 cups Granulated Sugar
- 4 teaspoons Almond Extract
- 1-1/2 cup Mascarpone
- 1 cup Confectioners Sugar
- 3 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
- 32 ounces, weight Strawberries, Stemmed And Diced
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk the following until well combined: milk, yogurt, eggs, olive oil, granulated sugar, and almond extract.
- Add the flour mixture to the olive oil mixture and stir just until ingredients are combined.
- Lightly grease a small round cake pan (I used a 9" cake pan, and the batter filled it about halfway) with a bit of oil, and pour the batter into the cake pan. Smooth the surface of the batter so that it is evenly distributed in the pan.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes, until the edges begin to turn lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove from oven.
- Allow cake to cool, then transfer to a large plate or platter. Cut cake into small half-inch cubes.
- While cake is baking, prepare the mascarpone cream. In a bowl, stir the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Assemble parfaits in your preferred serving vessels by layering first some cake cubes, then diced strawberries, and topping with a dollop of mascarpone cream. Serve.
- To store: parfaits may be stored in airtight containers in the fridge.
