Peach and blueberry crumble

Peach and blueberry crumble

If you train really hard, you can be constantly looking for ways to boost your carbohydrate intake. It′s easy to get stuck in a rut food–wise as you rely heavily on the usual carbohydrate suspects. Try this low–fat, high–carb healthy crumble. Using muesli instead of oats means the topping is still low glycaemic index (releases energy slowly, so great for exercise) but needs less fat and sugar added to keep it tasty. The blueberries are a rich source of antioxidants needed to keep the immune system strong.
