Description

Healthier “fried” apples made on the stovetop with tart apples, apple cider, fall spices, and coconut sugar. Serve with crushed apple chips for dessert!


Ingredients

  • 34 large tart apples, cored and sliced into ½ inch wedges 
  • 1 TBSP unrefined coconut oil 
  • 3 TBSP coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp arrowroot or cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup chilled apple cider 
  • pinch of nutmeg (optional)
  • pinch of ginger (optional)
  • Bare Snacks Apple Chips, crushed (plus more for serving)

Instructions

  1. Add the apple slices to a large skillet with coconut oil and sauté on medium for 8-10 minutes, until the apples start to soften and are fragrant. 
  2. Mix the chilled apple cider and cornstarch, set aside.
  3. Add the coconut sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch mixture to the apples, and stir to combine. Cover and cook at a simmer over low heat for an additional 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apple wedges are fork tender and the apples have a nice gooey glaze.
  4. Allow to cool a few minutes before serving. Top with crushed apple chips. 
  5. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week and freeze for long term storage.
