Sadly I do not “measure” very well and tend to eyeball things so these are all estimates. I know- not the greatest for cooking but hopefully it will help you with some new ideas!

“Caramelized” Apples-idea based off free samples at Whole Foods one day
(Paleo,Primal,SCD friendly)

Ingreedients:

A handful of Daglets or Dates (5-6)
About a 1/3 cup of coconut milk
Pecans (handful)
Tablespoon of Coconut Oil
3-4 Apples (depending on size) Gala works well skinned and cut into chunks
Cinnamon to taste

Place Daglets and Coconut milk into a food processor-process until it makes a smooth “paste”, add milk as needed. Will need to be processed for a couple of minutes.

In a frying pan, add coconut oil, pecans, apples and “caramel” paste, cook just until pecans are caramelized and browned

Put in a pan and add cinnamon or any other seasoning you find fit and put in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes (don’t let it dry out)

Serve! It was a huge hit at Thanksgiving!
