Warm Cinnamon Apple Dip
Ingredients~
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored and diced
- ½ cup raw cashews, soaked and drained
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tsp orange zest, optional
- 1 tbsp maple syrup, optional
- 1–2 tbsp water, as needed for blending

Add the diced apples, cinnamon and orange juice to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very soft.
Transfer the cooked apples to a high-speed blender. Add the soaked cashews, orange zest and maple syrup, if using. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, adding water a tablespoon at a time as needed to reach a thick, dip-like consistency.
Serve warm or slightly cooled with fresh apple slices or homemade oat crackers. Sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon before serving.

I started out over a decade ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
