It’s just an apple extravaganza over here right now😂 I love making fall desserts and I don’t have any pumpkin right now so apple is my go-to. Today I’m cooking them up with dried figs to make a delicious topping for nice cream, oats, and yogurt!
Figs are one of my new found loves- fresh ones are so good when they’re ripe, but I got a big bag of dried ones from Costco and OH MY GOD. They’re so sweet and sticky and delicious. Even though figs are a summer fruit, dried figs definitely give me fall vibes. They pair really well with cinnamon, and with apples🙌
This simple desserty topping takes like 5 minutes to cook up, and is soooo tasty. The apples and figs are sautéed in a bit of coconut oil; then some cinnamon and water are added to help everything come together. It adds such a nice fall touch to your breakfasts or snacks:) Hope you enjoy!!
Sautéed Figs and Apples
Serves: 2
Total Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples, sliced
- 5 dried Smyrna figs, sliced
- 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Directions:
- Heat the coconut oil in a pan over medium heat. Add in the apples and figs, and cook until soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add the water and cinnamon to the pan and stir to combine. Let the water cook off and the apples and figs cook down a bit more together, about 2 more minutes.
- Remove the apples and figs from the heat and serve warm over oats, nice cream or yogurt!
This is a simple recipe but it’s one I’ll keep coming back to!! See you guys tomorrow;)
Yours Truly,
