Gluten Free Apple + Blueberry Muesli

Gluten Free Apple + Blueberry Muesli

This delicious muesli is from my cookbook Purely Delicious and it's packed with antioxidants, protein and fibre. Reminiscent of apple pie using a simple ingredients. I've used pink lady apples in this recipe but you can also use ripe pear or other fruits in season.

Almonds are a great source of protein and vitamin E. Vitamin E is a vital antioxidant to help nourish and protect the skin. I've also added Healthy Chef Marine Collagen to help boost the amino acid profile and nourish the skin. 

INGREDIENTS

Serves 1-2

2 tablespoons raw soaked almonds (see notes)

1 tablespoon flaked coconut

1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds

1 apple or pear cut into dice with skin

1 tablespoon Healthy Chef Marine Collagen

1 - 2 fresh pitted dates or apricotst

thick natural yoghurt or almond milk to serve

blueberries, strawberries, kiwi , oranges etc to serve

METHOD

COMBINE soaked almonds, coconut, seeds, pitted fresh dates, chopped apple and marine collagen into a food process.

LIGHTLY PULSE for 10 - 15 seconds, or until just combined and mixed in a little - you still want nice chunks of fruit and nuts.

FOLD THROUGH the blueberries or other fruits you love.

ENJOY with almond milk or thick natural yoghurt with live cultures.

NOTES & INSPIRATION

Use brazil nuts in place of almonds for a selenium boost to nourish the thyroid.

Blend into a smoothie with water or almond milk, it's delicious!

Boost protein and add 1 tablespoon Healthy Chef Protein when blending.

Add a Superfood boost and mix in 1 tablespoon Healthy Chef Organic Superfood with your yoghurt before eating.
