TIPS
This makes an ideal breakfast or snack. Serve 2 – 4 tbsp. with fresh fruit and natural yoghurt or coconut yoghurt.

To make a healthy berry crumble, heat a pack of frozen berries until bubbling, add 1 tbsp. honey and cook on a low heat for another minute. Place in individual ramekins and top with granola clusters.
