These Cinnamon Baked Pears are the best healthy dessert.

Cinnamon Baked Pears

pears

c. butter

cinnamon sugar

c. old-fashioned rolled oats

brown sugar

cinnamon

kosher salt

This was an easy and very satisfying recipe. I didnt use nuts and instead of ice cream we used vanilla greek yogurt. My husband loved this and said the yogurt was much better than ice cream. Definitely making again!

Fabulous dessert! Even my 10 year old, who doesn't like 'fruit' desserts, devoured hers.  Our family of 5 enjoyed it plain, with vanilla ice cream, or with Cool Whip. I look forward to putting a  Costco bag of rapidly ripening  pears to good use again soon!

Egg Soufflé

butter (organic unsalted grass-fed butter recommended)

whole-wheat flour

milk

salt

pepper

eggs (local or organic pastured eggs recommended)

ham (diced)

prosciutto

basil (or other herbs)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch round baking dish.

Separate the eggs by placing the whites in a separate bowl from the yolks. Whisk the egg whites with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form (pictured) and set aside.

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once the foam has subsided, whisk in the whole-wheat flour (this is called making a “roux”). Keep whisking until the mixture begins to brown then turn the heat down to low and slowly add the milk while still whisking constantly so lumps do not form. Turn it back up to medium and continue whisking until the milk mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat and add 1/8 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Quickly whisk the egg yolks into the milk mixture without allowing them to cook.

Pour the milk/yolk mixture into the fluffy egg whites and using a rubber spatula carefully fold the two together without crushing the air out of the egg whites. Also add and mix in filling (like ham and/or cheese) if desired. Do not overmix.

Scoop the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake until lightly brown on top, about 20 – 25 minutes. Serve immediately (otherwise the soufflé will “fall”). Enjoy!

This soft and fluffy shaved ice is healthy and tastes absolutely amazing. It's perfect for hot summer days or if you want a low calories dessert. Serve with fruits and your favorite toppings and you won't get bored of it!

Switch up your traditional banana bread recipe for this banana caramel upside-down cake made with plant-based ingredients and a delicious miso glaze.

Vegan Banana Upside-Down Cake with Miso Caramel Glaze

tbsp (20 g) ground flaxseed

tbsp (90 ml) water

(60 ml) Sweet Buttery Miso Caramel

(188 g) all-purpose flour

tsp baking soda 1 tsp lemon zest 1⁄2 tsp salt

(240 ml) plain unsweetened vegan yogurt

(192 g) vegan cane sugar

tsp (10 ml) vanilla extract

1⁄4 cup (60 ml) cold water

(120 ml) reduced-fat unsweetened coconut milk

tbsp (30 ml) mellow white miso

tsp (10 g) vegan butter Pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). 

Line a 9-inch (23-cm) springform pan or baking pan with a parchment round.

Make the Flaxseed Eggs

Whisk together the ground flaxseed and water in a small mixing bowl. 

Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.

Make Sweet Buttery Miso Caramel

Add the sugar and water to a small saucepan and stir to combine. Turn the heat on medium-low and cook, without stirring, but swirling the pot occasionally, until the mixture is bubbly and has turned a light amber color, about 8 to 10 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and set it aside.

In the meantime, add the coconut milk, miso, butter, and salt to a separate small saucepan. Use a small silicone spatula to break up the miso. Turn the heat on low and whisk to work the miso into the coconut milk and butter, until the mixture is completely smooth and warm.

Whisk the Sauce

Slowly pour the warm coconut milk–miso–butter mixture into the sugar and quickly whisk it together. Be careful; it will bubble up and will be wicked hot. Cover and let cool.

If not using immediately, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Bring to room temperature before using.

Soak Bananas in Glaze

Pour the Sweet Buttery Miso Caramel into the pan and use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it in a thin layer as close to the edges as you can. 

Lay the bananas on top of the caramel, with their flat sides facing down and their rounded sides facing up, so when the cake is flipped upside down, the cut side will be facing up. Set aside.

For the Cake

Add the flour, baking soda, zest, and salt to a big mixing bowl. Add the flax eggs, yogurt, sugar, sunflower oil, lemon juice, and vanilla. Mix, using a hand mixer on low, until the batter is smooth.

Pour the batter over the bananas. 

Bake for 60 to 75 minutes

Or until the top is golden brown and a tester comes out clean.

Let the cake sit for at least 30 minutes before serving

Carefully invert the cake onto a serving platter and release the springform pan or tap the top to release the cake. 

Remove the parchment round. 

Cool completely before serving.

Sugar-free vegan stracciatella gelato

(185 milliliters) almond milk

(60 grams) cacao nibs

Slow-Baked Honeycrisp Apples

sugar

ginger

coriander

medium Honeycrisp or Fuji apples (about 1 1/4 pounds total)

(1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

orange peel

heavy whipping cream

vanilla extract

Bon Appétit

Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 300°F. Butter four 3/4-cup custard cups or ramekins. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix sugar, ginger, and coriander in small bowl. Peel apples, halve through stem end, and remove core. Slice apple halves crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Place thin layer of apple slices in each prepared custard cup, overlapping slices; brush lightly with melted butter. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon sugar mixture over each, then sprinkle very lightly with orange peel. Repeat layering apple slices, brushing with melted butter and sprinkling with sugar mixture and orange peel until all apples, butter, sugar mixture, and peel are used (there will be about 8 or more layers of apples in each custard cup and cups will be very full). Cover tops of cups with plastic wrap, then foil. Using small sharp knife, pierce 4 holes through foil and plastic wrap of each to allow steam to escape. Place cups with apple mixture on prepared baking sheet. Place 1 empty custard cup or ramekin atop each to weigh down.

Bake apple mixture until very soft and reduced in volume by about half (some of melted butter may spill out onto baking sheet), about 2 hours. Remove empty custard cups. Transfer cups with apple mixture to rack and cool at least 20 minutes. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with foil and refrigerate. Rewarm, uncovered, in 300°F oven until just warm, about 15 minutes.

Whisk all ingredients in medium bowl until soft peaks form. Spoon cream atop apple mixture in each cup.

For a delicate—not brittle—crunch, don’t overbake. It’s okay if the center of the cookie is still pale.

Oat and Pistachio Sandies

all-purpose flour

oats

pistachios

baking soda

(2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

Pulse flour, oats, pistachios, salt, and baking soda in a food processor to combine (small pieces of oats and pistachio should still be visible).

Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar in a medium bowl to create air pockets in butter, about 5 minutes; mixture will look light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low and add dry ingredients, mixing just until blended. Divide dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and shape into about 1½”-diameter logs. Chill until firm, at least 1 hour.(The colder your dough, the easier it will be to cut into even slices.)

Place racks in lower and upper thirds of oven; preheat to 350°. Using a serrated knife, slice logs into ¼”-thick rounds and place on parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about ½” apart. Bake, rotating baking sheets once, until cookies are golden brown around the edges, 10–12 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool.

DO AHEAD: Keep dough chilled up to 5 days, or freeze up to 1 month.

This lightened up fruit crumble lets the fruit be the star of the dish. Strawberries and apples with a delicious crumble topping makes for the perfect dessert with zero guilt!

Strawberry and Apple Crumble

(about 1-1/2 pounds) strawberries (hulled and quartered)

apple

corn starch

dark brown sugar (divided)

whole wheat flour

baking powder

unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 375F.

Lightly grease a 9 inch pie dish or an 8 x 8 casserole dish with cooking spray.

In a small mixing bowl, combine strawberries, apple, lemon juice, corn starch and 1 tablespoon light brown sugar. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and remaining brown sugar.

Incorporate butter into flour mixture with fingers until coarse crumbs form.

Press flour mixture into small lumps with hands and sprinkle over strawberries.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until top is golden brown and fruit is bubbling.

Remove from oven and let stand a few minutes.

Serve warm.
