Serving Size: 2/3 cup

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds)
  • 3 medium Granny Smith apples
  • 2 tablespoons light pancake syrup or caramel sauce
  • 1 6-ounce container nonfat vanilla yogurt

Instructions

  1. Put nuts in a single layer in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Stir after 45 seconds. This can be done ahead of time.
  2. Wash, core, and dice apples (no need to peel). Place in a microwave-safe bowl and drizzle syrup on top. Stir.
  3. Microwave apple mixture on high for 2 minutes. Stir. Microwave another 1 minute until soft but not mushy.
  4. Let cool for 2 minutes. Divide apples into individual bowls. Spoon yogurt on top.
  5. Sprinkle nuts on top of yogurt.

Tips

Use crunchy cereal instead of nuts.

To core an apple with an apple corer: Place the apple on a cutting board. Press the apple corer into the center of the apple (surrounding the core) until it touches the cutting board. Twist the corer and pull it up toward you to remove the core.

Sprinkle cinnamon on top of yogurt for extra flavor.
