Ingredients
- 1 apple
- 1 date
- 1 ml (1/4 tsp) cinnamon
- 1/2 banana
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) rolled oats
- 80 ml (1/3 cup) textured vegetable protein (TVP)
- 8 pecans or walnuts, chopped
Preparation
- Cut the date into small cubes. Place in a microwave-safe bowl with 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of water. Heat for 30 seconds. Add cinnamon, mash the mixture with a fork, and mix.
- Transfer half of the date-cinnamon mixture into a second bowl. Cut one apple into small cubes (keep the skin) and add to the first bowl. Mix and set aside.
- In the second bowl (now containing part of the date-cinnamon mixture), add the banana and mash with a fork. Add rolled oats, textured vegetable protein (TVP), and chopped nuts. Mix thoroughly to combine the dry ingredients with the banana.
- Pour this mixture over the apples and spread evenly to cover the surface.
- Microwave for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. Caution, the bowl will be very hot! Enjoy!
Notes
Cortland or Lobo apples are the varieties most suited for this recipe, as they maintain their shape during cooking.
