Apricot Crumble for Two + A Book To Checkout

July 17, 2015 by Nancy Lopez-McHugh 8 Comments

Apricot Crumble for Two by @SpicieFoodie | #dessert #glutenfree

You have six apricots that are beginning to soften, but you can’t possibly eat them all at this moment. You really don’t want to waste them, even if they aren’t the best tasting apricots you’ve ever had. What would you do with them? Me, I decided to see what they would taste like in a cobbler.

I’m so glad that I just didn’t toss the apricots into the garbage because they tasted much better baked than they did raw. Crumble is a very easy dessert to prepare, so perfect for those like me that aren’t the best bakers. The topping is made with oat flour, oats, and some puffed amaranth, so this is a gluten free recipe — but you could also use wheat flour instead of the oat. Additionally to give the dessert a little more nutrition I added some chia seeds. Typically I don’t like my desserts to sweet so the sugar amount is a tad low, you could add more if you’d like.

Anti-Inflammatory Herbs and Spices eBook by Kathy Aquino

Today I’d also like to give you a great tip on an ebook I just read, it is called Anti-Inflammatory Herbs And Spices: 30 Delicious Recipes To Reduce Inflammation And Pain and it was written by Kathy Aquino. There is so much great information on fighting inflammation and it’s great knowledge for whether you’ve some inflammation issues or not. Kathy provides well researched information on what causes inflammation, the natural herbs and spices that will help it, as well as 30 great recipes in which to test out those spices and herbs.

Anti-Inflammatory Herbs and Spices eBook by Kathy Aquino

Here’s what Kathy has to say about the book: “Scientists are finding that silent, chronic inflammation lies behind many diseases that are plaguing modern society, from diabetes to depression to cancer. The good news is that with diet and lifestyle changes, chronic inflammation can be brought under control. Cooking with more herbs and spices is one surprisingly easy and effective method for reducing chronic inflammation.

This book guides you through the most effective herbs and spices for reducing chronic inflammation. More importantly, it includes 30 delicious recipes from the Internet’s top food bloggers that feature an anti-inflammatory herb or spice, so you can reduce inflammation and improve your health, starting with your next meal.”

It’s really a good read, you could read it in an afternoon, and the price is too good, only $0.97! I hope you check it out — make sure to look out for the turmeric recipe, it’s one of mine.

    it took me a while to figure out that GOOD fruit was for eating fresh, and bad, out of season fruit was for cooking. i had it backwards for a long while. this looks tasty as usual!

      Exactly, Anna. But sometimes that good seasonal fruit is pretty tasty for cooking. :)

    I wish we could get decent apricots around here—but you’ve given me hope. I love making crisps and crumbles with summer fruit and I will definitely grab a few apricots and give this a try. And I love tumeric as an anti-inflammatory—great list of other options :)
