Parfait recipes
A parfait sounds complicated, but it’s actually one of the simplest make ahead desserts you can find! The joy of it is that it’s a frozen cream that doesn’t need to be churned. All you need is a loaf tin, and half an hour and the freezer will do the work.
Try Ravneet Gill’s honey and rye parfait, or opt for a fantastic chestnut parfait with bourbon caramel in the autumn.
