Fruit Bowl & Almond Date Crumble Topping


Made an apple crumble today and had some crumble left over. Thought I'd find another dish to make with it. Why am I not posting the apple crumble recipe? Because it was not my own recipe . But the crumble was. So here is a what I came up with.

I made a breakfast bowl with the crumble sprinkled on top. It was so delish!

1/2 cup quick oats
1/4 cup chia seeds

Method

Add milk, oats, chia seeds & hemp seeds to a bowl and mix
Pour into two bowls ( that you would be eating out of )
Let stand at least 1 hr or overnight 
Add fruit of your choice
Sprinkle with the Fruit Crumble Topping
Yields about two one cup servings

Health Benefits

First let's start with saying one breakfast bowl contains your daily recommended dose of essential omega 3 fatty acids. A nutrient we all seem to fall short of. The hemp & chia seeds are the ingredients in this recipe containing the omega 3. 
Omega 3 helps fight wrinkles, boosts brain, decreases inflammation, helps with depression & ADHD plus. 
Almonds help with weight loss, heart health , alkalizes the body plus.
