Recipe notes by Nicola Wilkinson
As October has arrived with its rich colours and warming flavours I decided to create a deliciously sweet and Autumn spiced dish, which you can use as a breakfast or healthy dessert.
Focused around orchard fruits and comforting textures, this dish is also incredibly healthy, well balanced and nutritious. I have replaced the high amounts of sugar and saturated fat ordinarily used to make granola and poached fruit, with a small amount of maple syrup, sweet orange, natural stevia sweetener, and oils rich in unsaturated fat.
To explore October’s seasonal bounty try using the following this month: apples and pears (several varieties), sweetcorn, beetroot, artichoke, butternut squash, celeriac, celery, chicory, chillies, courgettes, fennel, garlic, kale, parsnips, swede, turnips, plums, potatoes, quince, blackberries, chestnuts, broccoli, cauliflower, leeks, and many more.
