Healthy Banana Ice Cream

Ice cream is another one of my favourites, great for topping puddings, like my Apple & Cinnamon Oat Crumble but equally great by itself on a summers day.
This is definitely not an All Hans-on original as there are recipes all over the internet but it's such a good healthy alternative, I couldn't resist sharing it. I'll also be showing you how you can create Chunky Monkey Ice Cream from this basic recipe.

Apple & Cinnamon Oat Crumble

Now apple crumble has to be, hands down, one of my top 5 puddings!!

So I was gutted to think that I would have to cut down if I was serious about eating healthier but I knew there must be a way to still enjoy this delicious pudding, and there is...

Oat Crumble! 

With less sugar and butter but still packed with all the flavour of a great apple crumble.

As am sure you can tell but oats are a running theme in these healthy recipes. This is because they are a great source of fibre which is further boosted by the apples and blueberries and they are so versatile, not just for breakfast!

If you haven't been following my healthy series then take a look for some of my healthy breakfast ideas.

Greek Yoghurt and Granola Parfait

For my final healthy breakfast in the series is this lovely fresh parfait, it's perfect for those warm summer mornings. Today I will be sharing with you my simple cinnamon pecan granola recipe and how I pair it with greek yoghurt and berries to make this healthy and nutritious breakfast.

Granola is simply toasted oats which you can add you choice of nuts, dried fruit, spices or even chocolate to. This is much cheaper than buying in the supermarket and this way means you will know exactly what is going in to your granola.

Tortilla Egg Cups

For those who prefer a savoury breakfast then these tortilla egg cups are perfect, great for on the go and very easy to make. They are so versitile, you can fill the cups with pretty much anything.   Perhaps pizza cups with tomato puree, cheese and your favourite pizza topping or fajita cups with salsa, sour cream and chicken.

Cinnamon Oat Smoothie

Next in my series of healthy recipes comes this nutritious thick and creamy breakfast smoothie, packed with flavour and fibre keeping you fuller for longer. An easy grab and go morning pick me up.

Prior to making this smoothie you need to make sure you have one frozen ripe banana, peeled and diced into small discs. Bananas don't take long to freeze but I would recommend freezing them overnight. I always have a couple ready as they are a great natural ice cube and really thicken up any smoothie or shake, giving it a lovely creamy texture.
