A Busy Person's Apple Crumble

(from last Wordless Wednesday's post)

Preparation time: 5-10 mins

Quantity: any (I made for 2)

Cooking time: 40 seconds

Best made in: Rice bowl (or any deep sort of small bowl)

Disclaimer: I don't really take notice of quantities when I'm improvising something new so apologies there. I guess the way to work it out is try it yourself : ) Some days you might feel like more cinnamon, or ginger, or lots and lots of honey! 

The appley part

1 granny smith apple (for the 2 of us) cut up into cubes/bite size, skin on

Ground cinnamon

Ground ginger

(Optional) any berries, frozen is fine too

The crumbley part

Sunflower seeds (or any other kind of nut/seed)

LSA (or almond meal) - optional

Muesli (I used gluten free one. Oats will suffice.)

Sultanas/Raisins/Craisins (anyone tried this? I think we got some sample from our letter box!)

Fine dessicated coconut

To mix

Honey (as much as you like. I don't like too sweet so I put in half a table spoon for 2 serves)

Sprinkle of water after mixing apples and crumble (quantity......~1 tsp per serve)

To cook

Place mixture in microwavable rice bowl in microwave (on high) for 40 seconds
If you don't have a microwave, you can steam this for about a minute or two, checking as you go along

To serve

Add yoghurt (I like Jalna's premium low fat vanilla yoghurt)

or cream

or fresh apples/berries

or just have it the way it is : )

Bon appetit! 

(especially tasty after a light sort of dinner, best eaten in the colder months of the year. Also very nice as a wholesome breakfast before work.)

made over the long Easter break

Gluten free, sugar free, (almost) dairy free (we used butter instead of coconut oil)
