I enjoyed this and my dbf LOVED this!! Made half the recipe (one apple for me and one apple for my dbf) and used about the same about of "stuffing" - mmmmm good!!! Great healthy dessert!! Thanks Annacia!! :) -
We had this for dessert at our Passover seder and it was the perfect thing to have after a meal heavy on meat and matzah-based side dishes. I used my own homemade Recipe #23223 and everyone loved this, even the picky kids who usually make faces at a fruit-based dessert. Thanks!
