Blood Sugar Balancing Cinnamon Apples

This easy baked cinnamon apples recipe – only seven ingredients needed with minimal prep! Serve over pancakes, oatmeal or enjoy as is with a scoop of yogurt!

Serves 4

2 apples, thinly sliced

1 tbsp coconut oil

½ tsp ground cinnamon

⅛ tsp sea salt

¼ tsp vanilla extract

1/4 c pecans

Place sliced apples into a small saucepan with 2 tbsp water. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally. After about 5 minutes the apples will become slightly soft, and water will be absorbed.

Add 1 tbsp coconut oil. Stir apples and oil together.

Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring every minute or so.

Add cinnamon, salt, and vanilla. Stir well.

Cook for another few minutes, stirring until the apples reach your desired softness, add pecan and serve!

Tip: Keeping the peel on increases the fiber, which is even better for stabilizing your blood sugar.
