Baked Apples with Tahini & Cinnamon

I'm getting a tad excited looking out of my kitchen window at our apple trees. The apples are getting big and ripe and almost ready to eat. Yay! 

If you're looking for a healthy low-sugar treat to keep in pleasure-mode, this recipe has got you covered. This is even compliant to our 2-week blood sugar reset adrenal nutrition plan. Woot woot!

Ingredients

• 6 green apples
• ¼ cup tahini
• 1 tbsp cinnamon

Directions

• Preheat oven at 180 degrees celsius. Grease a casserole dish or slice tin.
• Peel the apples and cut up thinly. Arrange in the dish.
• Pour the tahini and sprinkle the cinnamon over the apples.
• Place the dish in the oven for 20-30min, until apples are cooked through, and the tahini and cinnamon has started going crispy.
• Serve the apples on their own, or with some coconut yogurt or coconut cream. Yummo!

Note: you can adjust the amount of tahini and cinnamon to your liking. Use less or more apples as well, depending on how much you want to make (ahem, eat, lol).
