Cinnamon Apple & Nut Winter Warmer Breakfast

This breakfast recipe has been a big favourite of mine the past few weeks. With the flavours of a de-constructed apple pie, but none of the extra calories, mornings are all the more enjoyable with this sweet treat.

Stay in bed those few extra minutes before braving the cold Wintery morning. This breakfast will take you less than five minutes to prepare, cook and assemble. 

What's more, there have been studies to suggest that apples are more effective than coffee in the morning. With their natural sugars your body gets that sudden burst of energy and the complex carbs mean your level of alertness is maintained for longer, unlike coffee which will cause you to crash not long after drinking it.
