Topping
  • 1-1/2 cups quinoa flakes (You can buy these at the health food store).
  • 1/4 cup sulfite-free dried cranberries or 6 medjol dates, pitted and chopped
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground cardamom (this is sooo worth adding if it's not a regular in your kitchen pantry, go get it! :)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (use any. I used a mixture of pecan, almonds, cashews)
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • Optional: 1 tbsp coconut palm sugar
  • Drizzle of real maple syrup (about 1-2 tbsp)
Filling
  • 5-6 organic apples, washed and thinly sliced (leave the peel on, most of the fibre and phytonutrients are contained within the peel)
  • 2 tbsp water or apple juice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Optional: 1 tbsp coconut sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place all in ingredients into a large bowl and mix together, excluding the coconut sugar and maple syrup. Give it a little taste test and add the coconut sugar if you think it needs it. Hold off on the maple syrup till the end -- see below.
Notes

Serve with some coconut milk vanilla ice cream or for breakfast with some coconut milk.
