Great Immune Booster!
When we think of immune boosters most of us think Vitamin C. But did you know that Vitamin D is a great immune booster? Vitamin D is a factor in the maintenance of good health. It is vital for many functions in our bodies, and higher blood concentrations of Vitamin D are associated with good health and strong bodies! In fact many researcher are now calling for the recommended daily intake of Vitamin D to be raised and for good reason. The great part is that there are Vitamin D drops that are great for adults and children! You can apply them to food, drink or also take in a supplement form! Remember during the flu season to make sure your getting your Vitamin D!
Gluten-Free!
What's autumn without apple crisp? In this gluten-free rendition of a
classic fall favorite, crushed almonds and rice flour give the topping
a chewy-crispy savor and a little extra sweetness that means you can use
less sugar in the filling. Try this even if you're not a celiac
sufferer; I think it's even better than the "old-style" crisps that use
wheat flour.
For the apples, consider a mix of Cortlands and
Wealthys. Cortlands are tart and crisp and hold up their shape after
baking, while Wealthys are sweeter and a bit softer. The contrast works
well here.
Prep Time: 20
Total Time: 55
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
2 1/2 pounds medium apples (about 8 total)
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/4 cups finely sliced almonds, divided
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup rice flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 tablespoons Organic Valley butter, cut into small pieces
1 pint Organic Valley heavy cream, whipped with a little sugar and vanilla
Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch or similarly sized baking dish.
2. Peel and thickly slice the apples. Place them in
the baking dish and toss them with the white sugar and lemon juice.
Spread apples out.
3. Make topping: Place 1 cup of the sliced almonds
in a plastic zip lock bag, place bag on counter and crush the almonds
with the flat side of a cleaver or other heavy object. (You can also do
this in a food processor, but take care not to over process the nuts.)
Combine crushed almonds with brown sugar, rice flour, salt and cinnamon
in a bowl. Use your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until
mixture is crumbly (or you may do this in a food processor using pulse
the button).
4. Sprinkle topping evenly over apples. Bake 25
minutes. Sprinkle crisp with remaining sliced almonds and continue
baking until fruit is tender and bubbly and topping is golden brown,
about another 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream.
