2. APPLE CRUMBLE WITH CORN
The apple crumble is a traditional English dessert that is made with fruit, flour, butter, and sugar. However, we can enjoy the crumble in a healthier way thanks to this version with corn. Preparation time: 35 minutes.
Ingredients for 6 people:
4 organic apples
150 g of organic corn flour
100 g of sunflower oil
125 g of whole cane sugar
40 g oat flakes
40 g of raisins
Zest of an organic lemon
1 vanilla bean
Cinnamon powder
Sea salt
Preparation: Wash and dry one of the apples and pass it on to the coarse grater. Then add a few drops of lemon to prevent the apple from browning. Next, cut the vanilla bean lengthwise and carefully remove the seeds from the inside. Heat a skillet over low heat with two tablespoons of sugar. Add a tablespoon of sunflower oil, a pinch of cinnamon, and vanilla seeds. When the sugar begins to caramelize, add the grated apple and sauté for about 4 or 5 minutes.
Peel and chop the remaining three apples and add them to the pan along with the lemon zest. Sauté a couple more minutes, turn off the heat, and reserve. Preheat the oven to 180º in a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, the rest of the sunflower oil, the oatmeal, or corn flakes until you get a homogeneous mixture. Place the sautéed apple that you have reserved in an oven-safe container and spread the dry dough on top. To finish, bake for 30 or 40 minutes at 180º, until the surface has a golden appearance.

3. EGGS IN THE CASSEROLE WITH VEGETABLES
A healthy breakfast should be made up of some type of protein. The egg is one of the most recommended proteins since it is low in calories, fights anemia, and has a great supply of vitamins. Although it is true that what we must moderate is the consumption of yolks. Preparation time: 40 minutes.
Ingredients for 4 people:
400 g of assorted mushrooms
1 spring onion
½ bunch of asparagus
4 eggs
100 ml of liquid cream
25g cheddar cheese
grated cured
A few sprigs of thyme
cool
Butter
Salt pepper
Preparation: Wash and cut the mushrooms, chives, and asparagus. Put all the vegetables in a bowl and reserve. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. When the butter is almost melted and begins to foam, without letting it burn, add the vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste, and sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring often.
Preheat the oven to 190 °. Butter 4 small casseroles or individual refractory containers and distribute the sautéed vegetables in them. To cook the eggs in the casserole, break 1 egg in each of them, ensuring that the yolk does not break. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. Put the casseroles in the oven and cook for 10-12 minutes, until the egg is set to your liking, that’s it!
