These chia parfaits are so delicious! The subtle sweetness of the almond & cinnamon flavoured chia layer pairs perfectly with the mulled wine & berry jam, especially when it's topped with a refreshing layer of sour cream. Best of all, the parfaits are naturally sweet so you can avoid using any sweeteners.
Just like my Keto Strawberry Breakfast Chia Jars, these parfaits are filling and ideal for breakfast, especially if you have a sweet tooth. And they're perfect for any occasion, not just the festive time of the year.
Note: Sweetener can be added to the chia layer and used to taste. Here's a list of suitable low-carb sweeteners. Sour cream can be substituted with dairy-free coconut milk yogurt or creamed coconut milk.
