A delicious way to serve up apples, or any other fruit you may want to try, this recipe is fairly simple, and so good. I am use to eating gluten free whenever possible, but, this recipe still blows any other one made with regular flour away…. IMHO. So rich and yummy! Serving sizes are fairly small, because this is such a rich and dense dessert, so, this recipe will serve about 6-8.
