Eat this NOW!

Seriously. This was so good. Like apple pie but better and healthier so there was no guilt or sugar hangover. Just a lot of plate licking. Yes, plates were actually licked.



I had been experimenting with my Cottage Cheese Pancake recipe using ricotta cheese instead of cottage. Wow...so good on it's own. Then I was inspired by a friend who mentioned baking apples and putting them on yogurt. A fine idea in itself but since I was making the pancakes...

So while frying up the pancakes for my hungry brood I popped some apples in the oven. I don't have any brilliant process for the apples. I just sprinkled them with a pinch of brown sugar and cinnamon, another pinch of flour (about a teaspoon to two apples) and a dab or two of butter. Ten minutes in a 350 degree oven got a nice enough result.

Since I will be making this everyday I may try to refine the apple baking (suggestions welcome as usual) but I honestly don't think this can be screwed up or even dramatically improved upon. They're apples! They do just fine without a lot of fuss.

P.S. The baby also really liked the little bits of cooked apples I gave him. Bonus! No baby food needed.
