Elevated Raw Fruit and Nut Butter Breakfast Bowl

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Nuts to You Almond Cashew Butter
• 1/2 apple, diced Cosmic Crisp Apples
• 1/4 cup, unsweetened Everland Banana Chips
• 1/2 cup, halved Green Seedless Grapes
• 2 tbsp Chia Seeds
• 1/2 cup Filtered Water
• 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract (Raw)
• 1 tbsp Flaxseed Meal
• 1 tsp Raw Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare Chia Seed Pudding: In a small bowl, thoroughly combine chia seeds with filtered water. Add the vanilla extract and 1/8 tsp of cinnamon for enhanced flavor. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator, until a thick, gel-like consistency is achieved. This allows for better hydration and a creamier texture.
2. Dice Apples and Halve Grapes: Dice the Cosmic Crisp apple into small, uniform pieces. Halve the green seedless grapes for a more pleasant mouthfeel and to release their natural juices.
3. Combine Base Ingredients: In a medium bowl, create a base by gently mixing the chia seed pudding with flaxseed meal. Flaxseed meal adds a nutty flavor and boosts the nutritional profile.
4. Layer the Bowl: Arrange the diced apple and halved grapes artfully over the chia seed base.
5. Enhance with Nut Butter: Drizzle the almond cashew butter over the fruit. Ensure the nut butter is at room temperature for easier drizzling.
6. Add Crunch and Spice: Sprinkle the unsweetened banana chips over the bowl and dust with the remaining ground cinnamon.
7. Sweeten (Optional): If desired, drizzle a teaspoon of raw honey or maple syrup over the bowl for added sweetness.
8. Serve Immediately: This breakfast bowl is best served fresh. The overnight soaking of chia seeds ensures optimal texture and flavor. Enjoy the combination of creamy, crunchy, and fruity elements!
