I had the good fortune of attending college on the East coast where the crisp autumn air would fill your lungs on long walks and the gorgeous color of the fall leaves would leave you in awe of nature's miracles. One of my favorite activities was to go with friends to pick apples! Just the way pumpkins are everywhere in the fall on the West coast, apples are on every counter, heaped in bowls in every shop, inn and convenience store on the East coast.
Simple recipes are easy to try. And this one has two muun chi ingredients! If you love apple crisp, without any refined sugars, this is for you! This recipe makes 4 servings.
Apple Crisp Breakfast Oats
The night before your desired delight,
4 cups water
1 dash salt
Bring to a boil and add
1 cup organic, steel-cut oats
Cook for a minute or two. Turn off the heat, cover and go to bed.
In the morning your oats will be perfect.
Stir in
1/4 cup muun chi CoCoFir
1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2-3 of your favorite apples, cut into bite-size pieces, keeping the skin on for extra fiber and nutrition
Optional:
¼ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup raisins
Simmer low for about 15 minutes, until the apples are softer but still have a little crunch, or longer if you like them soft.
Serve with muun chi No Grain Granola generously spooned on top and for the final touch, dollop a tablespoon of muun chi CoCoFir on top, with a touch of cinnamon for garnish. Who says breakfast can't be fun? Packed with all kinds of great fiber, probiotics and prebiotics, your gut will be saying 'thank you' all day long!
