Although it's getting slightly warmer and the days are getting longer, I still find myself craving wintery comfort foods and this apple, almond and quinoa bake hits the spot. It is full of protein and slow releasing carbs and is gluten-free and dairy-free! Enjoy it with homemade blackberry and blueberry compôte and Arla Skyr or Greek yoghurt (as pictured) or with fresh berries for breakfast or as an after dinner sweet treat.
