Recipe tips
It’s often the small details that make the biggest impact in the kitchen, so we’re sharing the tips we rely on when cooking and creating recipes
It might sound strange, but it works. Infuse your parfaits with a little extra flavour and depth by finishing them with a drizzle of good-quality olive oil.
For a quick extra crunch, top your parfaits with a sprinkle of banana chips before serving.
Unripe bananas lack sweetness and flavour, so go for ripe or overripe bananas for your banoffee sauce. The riper they are, the easier they will cook down.
FAQ: Questions about Lactose-Free Banoffee Yogurt Parfait
Make snack time your favourite time of the day with these sweet and simple banoffee treats. Find some helpful details below to guarantee your parfaits are the best they can be.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, you can store your parfaits in the fridge for up to 3 days before serving. Just prepare your parfaits without the granola topping, cover them with clingfilm or the mason jar lids and refrigerate until needed, adding the final granola topping before serving.
Can I use regular dates if I don’t have Medjool?
If you can’t get Medjool dates, normal dates (de-stoned and chopped) will also work. However, due to the difference in size, you’ll need to use a few extra.

Creamy, smooth and totally lactose-free
This tasty recipe brings together the best of British and a touch of inspiration from across the Channel, for a snack that you’ll crave all day long. Made with whipped cream and topped with a mixture of fruit, granola, chocolate or sweet sauces, classic parfait is a frozen dessert which originally hails from France. However, our take on parfait adds a little lactose-free twist. Instead of cream, this recipe uses Arla LactoFREE Greek Style Yogurt– making this version of parfait just as rich and creamy, with an additional punch of protein and none of the lactose. And of course, we can’t forget the banoffee sauce. Though many think of it as an American dessert, banoffee pie originated from East Sussex, quickly becoming a national staple throughout the UK and across the pond. Made with dates for that rich caramelised flavour, this banoffee sauce is simple to make and just as delicious as the real thing, plus it tastes irresistible layered with creamy yogurt and a little crunch.
Waste not, want not
Got some bananas that look a little worse for wear? Maybe they’re just a touch too bruised for your liking. Well, the great news is they’re the perfect banana to use to get the richness of flavour and fruity sweetness that makes this recipe a winner. They may look a little ugly, but those overripe bananas really make for a beauty of a recipe. And the best part is that you now have the perfect reason to ensure no banana goes to waste. Just whip up a couple of these parfaits next time you’ve got a bunch that needs using up.
