Ingredients: 

• Greek yoghurt (mascarpone cheese, if you really want to make it lavish)
• 1 tsp almond butter
• A handful of chopped nuts or seeds (walnuts, almonds, brazils, sunflower seeds, toasted pumpkin seeds, a mixture of all of the above, whatever you fancy)
• 3 dried apricots (brown, unsulphured, preferably organic)

Method

Fill a small individual portion-sized bowl with the yoghurt (or mascarpone). I’d advise using a very pretty bowl, which adds to the sense of occasion.

Drizzle the tsp of almond butter over the top. Then toast a handful of seeds in a small dry frying pan on the hob at a medium heat for about 5 minutes. Or chop a handful of nuts. Sprinkle your topping of choice on the yoghurt.

Cut your dried apricots into quarters using your kitchen scissors, and use as your final decoration.

If you’re feeling still more decadent, add a teaspoonful of unsweetened apple and apricot puree (available from most good health food shops and supermarkets), before you add the toppings. Or you could replace the apricots with fresh fruit – some pomegranate or a handful fresh berries, when in season.

Then sit back, and relish each spoonful, knowing that this indulgence is only doing you good.
