Healthy Dessert Recipe: Sauteéd Cinnamon Apples
Hey guys!
Can you ever have too many healthy dessert recipes? Yeah, you’re right. IMPOSSIBLE.
One night I was craving something sweet. Usually, that means ice cream. But that night, I wanted something warm and gooey…but fruity. Like apple pie. But ahhhh it was late and I was definitely NOT about to make an entire apple pie. So I grabbed an apple and improvised.
What happened next was literally magic. I took the 3 most simple ingredients EVER and I made my new favorite healthy fruit dessert recipe – Sauteéd Cinnamon Apples. I love when it happens like that! An unexpected new fave, thanks to a craving!
Not even kidding, this recipe has all of the gooeyness and flavor of actual apple pie… but without any added sugar or a heavy crust. Now that I’m thinking about it…a scoop of ice cream with this would be amaaaazing. Next time!
This recipe is also 90 Day Journey compatible! If you want more recipes just like this, try out my 90 Day Journey Meal Plans!

I just tried this and its AMZING!
I’m eating this right now and it’s sooo good! I used a Granny Smith apple (the only kind I buy) and pumpkin pie spice. 😀
I hate pie crust, always have, always will and this looks like a fabulous alternative, definitely going to make soon!
😯 this looks so yummy!!!! I’m definitely making this one – I’m always craving something sweet after dinner and this recipe is perfect! Thank you Cassey! Xx
Can I make this with peaches or cherries??
Oh yes, I can imagine they would taste REALLY good!!! Try it out and lemme know!!
looks good!
Dear Cassey,
I began my workout journey back in April last year, and I was working out quite consistently till December. I think I was motivated by my desire to reach a certain weight, but now that I did, I realise I’m not as motivated anymore 🙁
I KNOW working out truly does lift my mood, and it gives me soo many other benefits, but since December I’ve been taking WEEKS off working out and then deciding to ‘restart’ but that sudden motivation only lasts a week or two and I’m not really able to make working out a habit. Also not exercising frequently also has a negative effect on my diet, and I’m now slowly starting to regain all that weight I lost.
I am not sure what to do right now, I will hopefully do just a 30 min workout today and we’ll see how it goes from there. But do you have any advice for me??
Sincerely,

Hey Cassey,
