Apple Pie Sundaes
Pecans:
-
1 cup raw pecans
-
1 Tbsp coconut oil
-
2 Tbsp coconut sugar
-
2 tsp maple syrup
-
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
-
1 pinch sea salt
Apples:
-
4 medium-sized ripe apples
-
1 Tbsp coconut oil
-
3 Tbsp coconut sugar
-
1 tsp ground cinnamon
-
½ tsp fresh ginger
-
1 medium lemon (juiced)
-
2 tsp arrowroot
Toppings:
-
6-8 scoops vanilla bean ice cream
-
Whipped cream
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F and arrange the pecans on a baking sheet. While the oven is preheating, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples.
-
Once the oven is heated, bake the pecans for 7 minutes. Remove them from the oven, top them with coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt, and toss together until everything is evenly coated. Bake for 3-6 more minutes and set them aside.
-
While the pecans are baking, add the coconut oil and apples to a large-rimmed skillet and begin cooking them over medium heat. Add the coconut sugar, cinnamon, ginger, lemon juice, and arrowroot. Toss to combine.
-
Cover the apples and reduce the heat to medium-low for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once the apples are tender, remove the cover and increase the heat to medium. Sprinkle a bit more cinnamon and coconut sugar, and stir to coat. Cook for 2-4 more minutes and set them aside.
-
To make the sundaes, divide the apples between the serving dishes and top each with 1-2 scoops of ice cream. Garnish with pecans.
