Cinnamon Apples

Sharing is caring!

My recipes are grain free, refined sugar free and most are dairy free.  I revamped my diet to improve my health. My health is improving.

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 awhile with something yummy with the other restrictions in place. All kinds of apples. I love cinnamon apples with pork chops or turkey. It has long been a favorite of mine. I use two different varieties of apples in my recipe. I like the sweet and tangy taste. However, you should feel free to use whatever apples you like. I also like to use apple juice in it. You can juice fresh apple juice no sugar added or pineapple (no refined sugar added) juice.  Purchase a brand you like or even substitute water. The choice is yours. This recipe uses coconut sugar. I can find coconut sugar at Walmart where I live.

Ingredients:

1 large Gala apple

1 large Green apple

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon cardamom

1/2 cup apple juice or pineapple juice or water

1/4 cup coconut sugar

2 teaspoons tapioca flour

1 tablespoon water

Directions:

Peel and core the apples. Slice into bite-size pieces. Add apples, cinnamon, cardamon, apple juice and coconut sugar. Cook approximately 7 – 10 minutes until apples are soft. Using a potato masher mash about 1/3 to 1/2 of the apples. Add tapioca flour to the water and blend together to make a thin and smooth slurry. Pour the slurry into the cinnamon apples. Stir until thick. Remove from heat. Allow to cool slightly and serve.
