Apples Roasted with Cinnamon and Brown Sugar served on Yogurt

Nothing says fall like apples! A wonderful way to enjoy apples when they’re in season is roasting them in the oven. I have adapted this from Not Without Salt, it’s a simple and versatile recipe. Once finished roasting you can either eat it for dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or serve on yogurt topped with granola for breakfast (pictured above).

I roasted the apple chunks with coconut oil, a healthy substitute for butter. Combined with the vanilla bean it creates a wonderful aroma.

Mix all ingredients together and roast for about an hour.
