Ingredients

  • 220 grams (1 cup) cottage cheese
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey (more to taste)
  • 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp walnuts, chopped

Healthy Caramelized Apple

  • 1 apple, diced
  • 1 tsp granular sweetener (I use erythritol)
  • 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 tsp coconut oil (or butter)
  • a splash of milk (about 1 tsp)

To Serve, Optional

  • rolled oats, granola, muesli

Instructions

  1. In a breakfast bowl, mix cottage cheese with maple syrup, ground cinnamon and chopped walnuts until combined.

Healthy Caramelized Apple

  1. Start by chopping the apple, then transfer to a bowl together with granulated sweetener and ground cinnamon.
  2. In the meantime, heat a nonstick pan. When it is hot, add coconut oil, apple chunks and a splash of milk (about 1 teaspoon). Cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the apple chunks have become tender. Stir the apple while cooking.
  3. Stir caramelized apple into the cottage cheese bowl. Serve right away with some oats or granola if desired, or keep refrigerated for up to 2 days.
