Open Apple Crumble

When you are working towards living a healthier lifestyle, it’s the small changes that you make that will add up to a big difference, over time. One simple change to make is ensuring that you always have healthy snack ideas ready to go to when you are feeling hungry. 

In fall and winter, I love to indulge in comforting foods, especially sweet foods. This recipe ticks all the boxes — it’s naturally sweet, comforting, and you can eat it warm as a mid-morning or afternoon snack. 

With no processed sugar, it’s also incredibly healthy. Save this recipe to make when you need a pick-me-up, or increase the number of apples to serve this as a healthy supper or dessert for your family.

Healthy snacks can help to improve how you feel. 

When I began my own fitness journey, one of the first changes I made was to switch out soda for water — that’s right, there was a time where I only drank soda. 

I can tell you that this one change made a difference to how I felt. Being properly hydrated meant that I had more energy! When I noticed this, it inspired me to make other changes, and over time I began to turn my health around.

The benefits of making healthy choices are enormous — it’s not just about your physical body. When you commit to caring for your health, you start to discover your own inner power.
