Amount
Measure
Ingredient
Prep Method
2
Medium
Apples

2
Mediuam
Pears




Set the oven to 550.  I used one Gala, one Fuji, one Bosc & one Bartlett pear this time.  Cut the apples & pears in half and use a melon baller to remove the core. 



1/3
Cup
Sucanat
Or brown sugar, organic cane sugar
¼
Teaspoon
Cinnamon

2 ~ 3
Tablespoons
Organic unsalted butter
Or coconut oil
1
Medium
Lime
Juice and zest



Sprinkle the cut sides w/ sugar & cinnamon.  I used a mix of sucanat, brown sugar & organic cane sugar mixed w/ the cinnamon.   


Dot each core w/ a knob of unsalted butter & turn cut side down. Zest the lime, set the zest aside & put the lime cut side down on the pizza pan with the fruit.



¼
Cup
Port wine
Or red grapejuice



Add the port wine or red grape juice.   


Put into the oven & set a timer for 15 mins.  Get the ice cream out of the freezer to soften. 



When the timer goes off, remove the pan from the oven, and turn the fruits over into a serving dish.  Spoon over the sauce from the pan, squeeze the lime over the fruit and top w/ the zest.  



1
Pint
Favorite ice cream

1
Pint
Organic blackberries



Date molasses




Plate with the ice cream, blackberries (I cut some in half, leave some whole) and drizzle w/ the date molasses if using.  Try the flavors of Alwadialakhdar. 




You’ll look forward to getting whole fruit in your Hungry Harvest box from now on.  This amazing dessert is relatively low fat and sugar, so full of citrus flavored fresh fruit.  The cinnamon sings.  The cool berries, cold ice cream & hot fruit are fantastic.  I don’t peel the organic fruit, but do so if you’d like.
