Apple Kefir Breakfast
This is one of the many ways I enjoy kefir. One of my favorite combinations is maple syrup and kefir. This is really delicious and makes the house smell heavenly.
Course: Breakfast, Kid Approved, Snacks
Servings: 2
Apples
- 2 apples (Golden Delicious or Rome Beauty), medium size
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon Sucanat
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Walnuts Chopped
- ¼ cup Water spring or filtered with minerals
Kefir Topping
- 2 cups Kefir
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup (or four packages of stevia for a lower sugar option)
- golden raisins (For serving, optional)
- Walnuts Chopped, (For serving, optional)
Apples
Wash and core the apples almost to the bottom. (Don't core all the way to the bottom.)
Using an apple peeler, peel a thin strip all the way around the apple.
Place apples in a baking dish.
Combine the butter, Sucanat, cinnamon, and walnuts.
Fill the cavity of each apple with the mixture, dividing it evenly among the two apples.
Pour the water into the bottom of the baking dish.
Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes. Then let cool while you make the kefir topping.
Kefir Topping
Mix plain kefir with the cinnamon and maple syrup (or Stevia) and blend in blender.
When apples are still warm, (NOT HOT! You don't want to kill the good bacteria) pour kefir topping over top of apples and serve.
Sprinkle some golden raisins and extra walnuts on top. (optional)
