Ingredients

  • 6 large Apples, 1/4 inch slices (Honey Crisp and Pink Lady are my favorites)
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Oil
  • 1/4 cup pure Maple Syrup (I prefer richer, darker Grade B)
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground Cinnamo

Preparation

Step 1

Pre heat the oven to 375 degrees with the rack in the middle. Prepare 2 sheet pans with parchment or Silpat liners. Put the sliced apples in a heat safe bowl. Combine maple syrup, coconut oil, salt and cinnamon in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stir quickly to combine and remove from the heat promptly. Pour the maple syrup mixture over the apples and toss with tongs. Divide apples onto the two baking sheets in a single layer.
Bake about 20-25 minutes tossing once with tongs. Apples should be soft, fragrant and slightly browned when done. Remove from oven, let cool a few minutes. Carefully transfer to a blender and purée until creamy and smooth. Thin out with water if needed.
