-
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

4 tsp. maple syrup (to taste)
-
1/4 ground ginger or juice from 1 tsp fresh grated ginger (use a garlic press to extract the juice)

1 vanilla bean, sliced in half and “seeded” (scrape the sides to remove all of the beans) OR 1 tbsp vanilla extract
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
2. Grease an 8×8 pan (I prefer glass) with safflower oil or grass-fed butter.
3. Slice and Steam apples
4. Sift together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl, set aside.
