For a warming breakfast treat in the winter try my cooked apples.  The chia seeds offers protein and ghee provides warmth and grounding.

  • 1 apple chopped
  • 1 pear chopped
  • ½ inch piece of ginger minced (can substitute 1/8 tsp dried ground ginger)
  • enough water to cover apples and pears
  • ½ tsp breakfast spice mix (or add 1/8 tsp each cinnamon, allspice, cardamom and a dash of cloves)
  • 2 TBSP raisins
  • 4 pitted prunes cut into quarters
  • 4 dried apricots cut into quarters
  • 2 TBSP dried cranberries or cherries
  • 2 tsp ghee
  • Maple syrup to taste

Yields 2 servings.

Cook the apples, pears, ginger, spices, ghee and dried fruit in the water over medium low heat for 10-15 minutes. 

Add maple syrup to taste.  Enjoy!
