Spending time with family often means engaging in some of the most timeless traditions. For our family (and many others, I’m sure) cooking tops the list. If you’re searching for healthier ways to pull together some leftover holiday ingredients, look no further. There’s something so festive about spiced apples baking in the oven. Add savory pecans and an almond-based paleo flour, a touch of sweet maple syrup, cinnamon apple sauce and heart-healthy rolled oats to the mix, and you have this tasty vegan, gluten-free treat. It’s great for dessert, but not too sweet, so you can even eat it for breakfast (and if you are anything like my family – you definitely will.) Happy holidays to you and your family … and happy baking! Vegan Apple Pecan Bars
