Instructions

To make the oat crumble:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or lightly grease.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and chopped nuts.
  3. Add the diced butter and use your finger to rub the butter into the flour mixture to form a crumbly texture. Do not overmix.
  4. Arrange the crumble on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature.
To prepare the strawberries:
  1. In a large bowl, toss together the diced strawberries, 2 tablespoons (25 grams) sugar, and orange liqueur or orange juice until combined.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
To make the lemon cheesecake:
  1. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sour cream using a hand mixer or whisk until blended.
  2. Beat in the powdered sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla.
  3. Add the milk and continue to beat until light and creamy. Transfer to a piping bag with a 1/2 inch (1.25 centimeter) tip to easily transfer to the parfait glasses.
To assemble:
  1. Cover the bottom of a serving glass with a thin layer of the cooled crumble.
  2. Cover the crumble with a layer of the cream cheese.
  3. Cover the cream cheese with a layer of the strawberries.
  4. Continue to layer until the glass is filled, ending with a layer of the cream cheese.
  5. Repeat with the remaining glasses.
  6. Serve the Strawberry Cheesecake Parfaits immediately. If desired, garnish with fresh strawberry slices and mint leaves.
