The aroma coming from the oven when these juicy spiced pears were cooking… It’s beginning to smell a lot like Christmas!
These pears would be a lush brekki to have on a cold winters morning or as healthy dessert. The recipe couldn’t be anymore easier!
HEALTH TIP- Nutmad activate their nuts which makes them much easier to digest and absorb the nutrients. Nuts, legumes and grains contain anti nutrients, enzyme inhibitors and other thangs that can irrrate the gut lining, so by ‘activating’ or sprouting these foods you remove those substances 🤓 I will be writing a blog post soon about this and how to properly prepare these foods like our ancestors did!
