Easy as Pie. But MUCH healthier + delicious
Ingredients
5 organic apples*, peeled and sliced (not very thin as it will turn out a bit mushy)
2 Tbs lemon juice
2 bags organic frozen mixed berries** or 1 bag of frozen raspberries and 1 bag of frozen cherries
Optional: 1 cup of pure apple sauce
Instructions
Heat oven to 400º
Mix apples and lemon juice in a bowl and spread out on a parchment-lined baking tray
Bake for 20-25 min (depending on your oven) until edges as a little browned
Immediately add frozen fruit to warm apples and mix well - it turns a bright red!
You can add apple sauce/water to make it more or less saucy
Notes
This dish is hugely versatile - it can be eaten warmed, at room temperature or cold - for breakfast or desseert
*The apples should be firm and not to tart - my preference is Ambrosia or Pink Lady. Gala is too soft and Granny Smith is too tart
**Trader Joe’s has a good one or you can use any frozen berries or cherries. I like to use cherries as I did in this recipe
A big thanks to sister Nola for the inspiration and recipe!
