Roasted apples with chia pudding and yogurt
So, I am aware that every week I come here and dramatically declare to you all that I have a favorite new dish.
They can't all be favorites, can they?!
Well.
Right now, this one honestly is. This has been my last three breakfasts and one afternoon snack (because I could not stop thinking about it).
This is really great right after my workout in the morning - when I cannot eat much beforehand anyway, and I come home ravenous.
I mix up the sauce for the roasted apples, using my favorite almond butter, mix it into sliced apple pieces, and wrap in foil to cook. I run upstairs to shower / change and by the time I am done? So are my roasted apples!
The cider chia portion was made the night before, so it is literally one more minute to grab everything and assemble.
Super easy, incredibly flavorful, keeps me full and happy until lunch.
...and this flavor.
I was being most basic with my Pumpkin Spice Latte Chia Pudding, and was enjoying that seasonal flavor until this one just hit me.
Roasted Apple Cider Chia Pudding evokes all the goodness that is fall. These warm roasted apples are just too good, and since we always have plenty of spiced cider this time of year, it is a quick and easy task in the evening to whisk up chia and cider for the morning.
This recipe works even if you don't roast the apples! Yes, mix up the sauce for the apples and toss with raw cubed apple pieces - adds a good crunch.
Everyone has spiced apple cider around right now, yes?
If not, add it to your shopping list...

Air Fryer for first of the season apples - adding in apple cider and peanut butter was an absolutely incredible idea!! This was absolutely amazing, thank you.

I remember last year seeing roasted apples as a dish for the first time. I thought it was so cool, but totally forgot about it. I CAN'T forget about this one - it looks SO good!
Sarah says
I can't love this enough because lately I've been loving something similar! Usually pre workout so you can probably guess what the difference is. 😉
I laugh at the new favorite every week because I'm the same I get on something I'm loving and craving and have it a lot, try to tweak it a little so it's different but the same. Hey when it isn't broke fix it so like my teenage self just keep it on repeat until I get bored with it. 😉

You always have the most creative ideas for chia puddings. I can imagine the spicy aroma from the roasting apples. This is another chia hit!
