How to Make Blueberry Peach Parfaits
- In the top of a double boiler (or a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water), whisk together the eggs, lime juice, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
- Place the double boiler over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and combined. Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve for a smoother texture (optional).
- Let the lime curd cool slightly, stirring occasionally, to prevent a skin from forming.
- While the curd cools, blanch the peaches (optional: briefly dip in boiling water, then ice water to easily peel), peel, and slice them.
- Gently wash and drain the blueberries.
- Layer the peach slices, blueberries, and lime curd in parfait glasses or individual serving dishes. Repeat layers as desired.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the parfait to chill.
- Serve chilled. Top with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
