Cosmic Crisp Culinary Challenge Logo

Recipe by Hannah Kaminsky, honorable mention in the 2023 Cosmic Crisp®️ Culinary Challenge in the Snacking category.

Ingredients

  • 2 Cosmic Crisp® apples, cored and diced
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup chopped almonds
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of sea salt

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. In a food processor, pulse the diced Cosmic Crisp® apples until finely chopped. Transfer the chopped apples to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add the oats, almond flour, maple syrup, almond butter, shredded coconut, chopped almonds, dark chocolate chips, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt to the bowl with the chopped apples.
  4. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. The mixture should be sticky and hold together when pressed.
  5. Using a tablespoon, scoop the mixture and roll it into compact balls using your hands. Place the bliss bites onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart. Top with additional coconut and chocolate chips if desired.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the bliss bites cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Once cooled, transfer the bliss bites to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  9. Serve chilled and enjoy these Cosmic Crisp® Apple Bliss Bites as a delicious and healthy snack!

Not your childhood applesauce 🍎🍑⁠ Peaches found their perfect match in Cosmic Crisp®. No added sugar, just two fruits at their peak & simmered down into a naturally sweet & lightly spiced sauce. ⁠
⁠
Ingredients:⁠
🍎 4 Large Cosmic Crisp® Apples, Diced⁠
🍑 24 Oz Frozen Peach Slices⁠
🍋 1 Lemon, Juiced⁠
💧 3/4 Cup Filtered Water⁠
⁠
Directions⁠
1. Add all ingredients to a large pot. Cover with a lid and place over medium heat.⁠
2. Cook for about 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently until the fruit has cooked down & is soft all the way through. A fork should easily pierce an apple. If the mixture is bubbling too much, reduce the heat to medium-low.⁠
Add everything to a blender, working in batches if needed. Blend until completely smooth, then pour back into the pot.⁠
3. Place back over medium-low heat, stirring frequently for about 10-15 minutes to cook down/thicken a bit more. This step is optional but recommended.⁠
4. Remove from the heat and let cool completely before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.⁠

Cosmic Crisp® said oxidation? Never heard of her 🍎🧬 ⁠
⁠⁠
Cultivated with naturally higher levels of sugar & acidity, this helps make the apple incredibly slow-to-brown. Translation? No sad brown apples ever 👏⁠
