Apples with Vanilla Maple Yoghurt Dip

A great healthy and fun way to serve up the basics ~ Apples + yoghurt = beneficial probiotics and prebiotic fibre = gut + immune health.

 

DIY flavoured yoghurt, so YOU control the amount of sugar and what goes in your food! 

 

Maple syrup has a high mineral content and low GI, so it does not spike your blood sugar like other sugars, especially when served with high fibre + protein foods. Choose plain plant-based or dairy yoghurt as you like; be sure it’s plain with no added sugar, chemicals etc.
