You all probably saw my Baileys Cookies and Cream Yogurt Parfait - right?
Well those were just amazing and I think they may just have me onto a new obsession.
I am now thinking of what other delicious combinations I can make.
My next installment of course had to be a crumble. Mainly because those over ripe pears in my fruit bowl, were calling me to be used into something.
Now granola, that's another favorite thing of mine, but oh my gosh, have you see the calories in a teeny portion of granola? You might want to save a few days syns if you ever want a bowl of that stuff.
So I had no option but to make my own low syn crumble topping and this was actually really good. Just oats, maple syrup and a bit of water is all that's needed.
You can also substitute the pear for other varieties of fruit - some defrosted berries would be great and of course those would be syn free too (so long as you don't cook, puree, blend).
I already have my next installment of these yummy desserts planned out. I just need to get one vital ingredient. So watch this space for that!!
Oh and noticed I mentioned dessert? Well you could have this for breakfast or whenever you want really. Just remove the word dessert and add the word breakfast - viola!!

This looks lovely. If I want to have it for breakfast and cook the oats the night before will they still be crisp in the morning?
yes they will, I just store the prepared granola in a seal tight container once cooled.
So for breakfast this morning I had apple and blackberries, both uncooked, with 0% fat Greek yogurt and topped with your granola. It was delicious and kept me full all morning and I’ll definitely be making it again X
