Baked Almond Apple Rings with Cameo Apples

Following on from my bircher muesli recipe with Cameo Apples last week, today I bring you another super easy recipe that is perfect for dessert. It's is the perfect amount of sweetness with savoury and has no added sugar. I first saw this recipe on an amazing blog run by Gina and couldn't wait to re-make it!

Eating apples are perfect for dessert as they are naturally sweet .. this means that there's no need to add any extra sugar (low GI agave nectar drizzled on top is purely optional!!). Apples also take on the most beautiful and soft texture once baked - I promise you you will love this recipe!

So, to make these delicious Baked Almond Apple Rings all you will need is:
1 large apple - cored and then sliced into rings (about 1-1.5cm width)
2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil (heat in the microwave for a minute or so)
1/2 cup (50g) of ground almonds
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 a teaspoon of nutmeg

And here's what to do..

1) Pre-heat your oven to 190 degrees C (375 degrees F)
2) Mix together the ground almonds with the cinnamon and nutmeg
3) Dip your apple chunks (on both sides) in to the melted coconut oil ..
4) .. And then roll both sides in the almond mix
5) Place all apples on a wire rack over a baking tray covered with foil

6) Bake for 5-7 mins, flip the apples and bake for another 5-7 mins
7) Turn your oven up to the highest temperature it goes to and bake for a further 3-5 minutes with the door open (until your apples are nice and soft!)


I served my apple with Greek yoghurt and extra cinnamon.. ice-cream and agave nectar would also be delicious!!
 
This recipe serves 2 and serving is ~180 kcal.
 
Happy apple baking!
