I love the smell of fresh apples baking in the oven, especially come Fall season! How about a low calorie dessert that’s served with some hot tea for a relaxed evening! Eating an apple a day sure does keep a doctor away – delicious way that is! Oats promote healthy hair growth and apples are rich in immune boosting Vitamin C and important fiber!
Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for some richness and decadence! May also be served at breakfast time for a healthy meal.
