Apple Pie with Pecans
Dice apples into small cubes. Combine apples and avocado oil or 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan on medium-high heat. Cook until apples are softened and tender, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add cinnamon and maple syrup to the apples and stir. Divide apple cinnamon mixture over two bowls of yogurt. Add chopped pecans. Enjoy!

Orange Pistachio Yogurt Bowl
Add one cup of yogurt to each bowl. Peel and segment the mandarin oranges and add to each bowl. Top with crushed, shelled pistachios and a drizzle of honey.
Notes
To store: all yogurt bowls can be prepped in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. I love to add frozen fruit because it adds some juice and flavor as it thaws. If topping with banana, it's best to add slices on when ready to consume (the day of) to prevent browning.
For a dairy-free yogurt bowl, choose a higher protein plant-based yogurt like Kite Hill Greek-Style.
The Instant Jell-O cheesecake pudding mix is not gluten-free. However, other pudding mixes (like vanilla) are.
