Health benefits of Peach Parfait With Salted Graham Cracker Crumble

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.

Ingredients

5 graham crackers, finely crushed
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus 2 tablespoons room temperature
2 ripe peaches, cut into 1/3-inch wedges
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup fresh raspberries
1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 °F. Pulse graham cracker crumbs, flour, salt, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl and add melted butter; mix until a few large clumps form. Spread out crumble on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, shaking once, until golden, 12 –15 minutes. Let cool.
Meanwhile, toss peaches, brown sugar, and 1 Tbsp. lemon juice in a medium bowl. Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium; cook peaches, tossing often, until sugar is dissolved and peaches are soft, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Mash raspberries with a spoon in a small bowl, then mix in remaining 1 tsp. granulated sugar and remaining 1 tsp. lemon juice. Let sit 5 minutes for raspberries to soften.
Beat cream in a medium bowl to medium-soft peaks. Divide warm peaches among bowls and top with whipped cream, raspberries, and graham cracker crumble.
