Registration for the September 7 Conscious Cleanse is open and we’re excited to share a new cleanse-friendly treat with you today.
The inspiration for today’s recipe came from past cleanse participants who elected to try our new Low Sugar Plan.
Who is the Low Sugar Plan for?
Simply put it’s for those of us who struggle with our weight, mood swings, hormone issues, anxiety, and/or insomnia. It’s for those of us who have an insatiable sweet tooth!
Not sure if this is you? Check out our Sugar Sensitivity Quiz to find out.
Traditionally the Conscious Cleanse has included natural sweet treats, things like dates or Joy Balls. However if you’re a sugar addict, these foods can often take you down the wrong path.
Spiced Baked Apples to the rescue!
Not only is today’s recipe a great low-sugar option while you’re on the Low Sugar Plan of the Conscious Cleanse, Spiced Baked Apples is a healthy treat that the whole family will enjoy!

With love and sweet treats,
Spiced Baked Apples
Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients:
- 4 Pink Lady apples, cored and cut into 1” chunks (you can use your favorite variety!)
- 1 ½ TB. coconut oil
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- ¼ tsp. nutmeg
- ¼ tsp. ginger
- 1 star anise pod
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions:
Heat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium sized bowl place apples, coconut oil, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, star anise, rosemary sprigs, and sea salt. Toss together until the apples are well coated with the coconut oil and spices. Place mixture on a sheet tray and spread the apples so they are not touching. Put the tray into a warm oven. Roast until caramelized and tender, approximately 25 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and the star anise. Serve and enjoy!
