I love apples. I know I don’t tend to eat a lot of apples as I am on a modified Keto diet. But I think it is nice to splurge every once in a while with something yummy with the other restrictions in place. Hence, I love cinnamon apples they go extremely well with pork chops or turkey. Not to mention, it has long been a favorite of mine. I like the sweet and tangy taste. However, you should feel free to use whatever apples you like. In summary, I also like to use apple juice to amp up the apple flavor. You can juice fresh apple juice no sugar added or pineapple (no refined sugar added) juice. Therefore, purchase a brand you like or even substitute water. Needless to say, the choice is yours.
Notes:
Apples have long been an accompaniment for pork, turkey or chicken. In fact, when doing research I found several sources who believed the first Apple Pie recipe was written in “The Forme of Cury” written in the 14th century (1). Since I feel like this recipe is like apple pie filling. Therefore, making recipes retro, vintage, and classical. Hence, they are also perfect as a filling for Gluten-Free Sweet Dessert Crepes.
Moreover, Amazon has cinnamon, cardamom, coconut juice, and tapioca flour.
