With Thanksgiving being right around the corner, we start to think about wholesome foods and where they originated. Today I wanted to focus on the Paleo Diet since it’s based upon eating wholesome, contemporary foods from the food groups that our hunter-gatherer ancestors would have thrived on during the Paleolithic era, or Stone Age. I made an apple cobbler that was quick and simple to put together. This is a great idea for Thanksgiving dessert or any day of the week. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
2 cups blanched almond flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
½ cup Kelapo Coconut Oil
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
¼ cup dried cranberries
5 medium apples, peeled, sliced, then chopped in half width-wise
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
In a small bowl, combine the coconut oil, honey, and vanilla.
Stir all the wet ingredients together and then add them into the dry ingredients.
Place the chopped apples and cranberries into a baking dish and then crumble the topping over the apples.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until the apples are soft.
Remove from the oven and serve warm.
Enjoy!

I love using coconut oil in my cooking because it makes it taste so rich without the fat!!

Thank you for introducing me to so many great recipes using coconut oil. Coconut oil is my new obsession…I use it for a million things. Who knew? I love that I have used it to soothe a sunburn, condition my hair, refresh the look of my leather furniture, moisturize my skin, shave my legs, oh and my dogs are CRAZY for coconut oil too! I am in the process of successfully converting my friends over as well. Thanks guys!!
I love how healthy it is to cook with and I love the flavor it gives!!

It’s just so much healthier for you!
I love coconut oil because it is so versatile and sooo good for you. It can be used in food, skin care, household things and so much more. What a wonderful product.
I just started using coconut oil. Such a great taste and is suppose to help with weight loss.
I love coconut oil because it’s antifungal and helps kill candida. It’s also antiviral. I need it because I am recovering from chronic illness.
what a wonderful prize and I love to bake!
I love coconut oil because it’s good for SO many things. I use it not only for cooking and baking, but as lotion, as deodorant, as a leave-in hair conditioner, etc….
I love coconut oil — it is absolutely DELICIOUS, but my favorite part is that it can handle high temperatures, which means I can use it in ANYTHING, unlike other oils. I also love that it can be turned into a “magic-shell” topping for banana soft-serve. DELISH! <3
I love coconut oil because it is so versatile. I can use it in the kitchen, in the bathroom and on my baby’s bum!
I love to cook with coconut oil, eat it by itself, use it as a moisturizer. I also add it to my dog food. So good and so many health benefits. I’m never without!
Why do I love coconut oil ? Let me count the ways ! 1) It tastes great. 2) It’s good for you ( it’s a healthy fat) 3) more… It’s good for you ( I’m told that if you have GERD caused by H. Pylori – coconut oil can help eradicate this micro organism) 4) even more .. It’s good for you … It’s high in lauric acid – which can help boost your immune system and has antiviral properties.

5) It’s very versatile. You can eat it right out of the jar, added to your favorite food or drink, and can fry with it too ! You can even rub it on your scalp, face, hands, anyplace ! ( said to have anti-aging properties )
I love how it makes everything taste so much better and healthier.
Looking for great recipes to use coconut oil – and the apple cobbler recipe is a keeper!
I love it because it makes everything taste delicious–and it goes with many other foods!
