Free Healthy Recipe - Gluten Free Apple and Polenta Crumble

Gluten free, Low GI, Low sugar, Wheat Free

There's nothing more comforting than apple crumble, yet sadly for those who are gluten intolerant, even one made with oat flakes is unapproachable. Here's a gluten free alternative using polenta and while it may not have exactly the same consistency as traditional crumble made from flour, sugar and butter, it is better for you and will give you that same sense of nurturing and warmth.

Ingredients

1 cup coarse polenta

2 cups water

¼ cup honey

¼ cup tahini

¼ cup corn oil

4 apples peeled and sliced (approx 500g)

½ tsp cinnamon

Natural yoghurt to serve

Method

Preheat the oven to 180C.
In a small pan combine the honey, tahini, water and oil and slowly bring it to the boil stirring continuously. Add the polenta; reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring regularly for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Arrange the apples in the bottom of a pie dish or individual ramekins, and sprinkle with cinnamon. Using your hands, crumble the polenta over the top. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes. Serve with sheep's yoghurt.
