APPLE COCONUT BUCKWHEAT PARFAIT
[serves two]
Ingredients:
½ cup raw buckwheat (soak in water in the fridge overnight)

Method:
- IF USING APPLES: Wash and core apples, add to a small saucepan with ¼ cup water and bring to a gentle simmer for 8 minutes.
- Once cooked leave apples to cool, do not drain (I make this the night before when I measure out my buckwheat and soak).
- In morning drain and rinse buckwheat and add to food processor or blender together with apple mixture, flaxmeal and stevia. Blend well. (I usually stop the blender to scrape down the sides and then blend again)
- Add yogurt and coconut and blend again.
- Spoon into jars, cups or bowls and add some extra yogurt and coconut toppings.
