Preparation Steps
1
Peel the pineapple and purée until smooth.
2
Whisk the egg yolks and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy.
3
In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the pineapple purée. When it starts to simmer, pour it into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
4
Return the pineapple-egg mixture to the saucepan and stir constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes slightly creamy.
5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pineapple mixture. Using a spatula, be careful not to deflate the cream, maintaining a light and airy texture.
7
Pour the mixture into a dish or a silicone mold and place in the freezer. Freeze for a minimum of 4-6 hours, but for the best flavor, let it sit overnight.
8
5 minutes before serving, remove the parfait from the freezer to make it easier to slice. Dip a knife in warm water and gently cut into the parfait.
