Apple Pear Recipes

This yummy juice is super easy and hits the spot!

Rustic pie made without a pie pan, folding in on itself. Can us any fruit - delicious!

Warm and nourishing with an extra kick of spices to rev your metabolism in the morning, and quell your hunger for hours.

I love the fall and I love apple and pear butter. I got this recipe from Whole Foods, I just tweaked it a bit, just by adding lemon juice to keep the fruit from browning. The consistency is like apple sauce. It would go great with pork, chicken with mashed potatoes on the side. I'm using this to put in my yogurt, pancakes, ice cream and oatmeal.

Taking inspiration from my mom's favourite cookbook and our bible for fall baking - Apples, Peaches and Pears by Elizabeth Baird - I combined the title fruits in a simple whole-wheat pastry crust and baked it to golden perfection. It's the perfect treat for the end of Summer when peaches are in their prime, pears are just starting to emerge and even early apple crops are half decent. Without having to fiddle with a pie pan or a top crust, it's a snap to put together!

A Simple Refreshing Fall Treat

Juice for health

Protein Fiber Packed Twist on the traditional oatmeal breakfast.

A Cobbler is a country-style dessert that's less than a pie,but still gives the wonderful flavour and fruit.

Great as a dessert with a scoop of vanilla low fat ice cream or as is.
Tastes like apple pie without the calories of the crust.
You can just use the apples if you don't like pear and if you want a little tartness add some crasins
You can use less splenda brown sugar, I really don't measure it I just sprinkle it on top (so I really think I use less than 1/4 cup)

crockpot oatmeal with flaxseed, wheat germ, unsweetened apple juice, fresh pears and apples.

Very tasty, for everyone in the house!

Low sodium, low calorie, healthy low fat, BIG on flavour, delicious....

I had 4 apples and an asian pear "to use up" and created this soup in my crockpot (any apple or pear can be used in this)...and it came out fantastic! I didn't peel my apples, since I like the fiber aspect, but feel free to peel them if you wish.

Other recipes add cream or half & half, but I don't think it is necessary....feel free to play with the spices, if you don't like curry, leave it out and add some cumin or basil.

You can eliminate the olive oil (which reduces the calorie count to around 127), but the oil gives the soup a better "mouth feel". Feel free to make this vegetarian by swapping the chicken stock for vegetable stock...or even water would be fine, and add a TINY amount of salt.

You may choose to add a dollop of fat free sour cream or yogurt when you serve it....

A quick and yummy side salad
