Mini Apple Pie Crescents | Dairy-Free, Egg-Free Dessert Recipe

*I have been compensated by Immaculate Baking and Whole Foods for this post; however, I am sharing my own thoughts. As always, all opinions are my own. 

I am elated to be partnering with Whole Foods to bring you this holiday baking recipe. Apple pie is a staple during the holidays, but I wanted to share a bit of an unconventional take on it! As you probably know, everything I make is both dairy and egg free, so you don't have to worry about those with this recipe!

This deliciously festive dessert is so incredibly easy and only took me about a half hour to make from start to finish! It's also very easy on the wallet, making these a great option for holiday parties! You can make these in bulk without worrying about spending a fortune - I guarantee they'll be a hit!

MINI APPLE PIE CRESCENTS

Ingredients:

• 3 granny smith apples sliced
• 1 package of Immaculate Baking Organic Crescent Rolls
• 1/4 cup coconut sugar
• 1/4 cup pecans chopped (but you can forego them to make it nut-free)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon allspice
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg

Method:

This is a pretty simple recipe! 

1. As you can see in the video, you start by mixing everything in a bowl except for the crescent rolls and pecans. (Oh and make sure you pre-heat the oven to 375 F).

2. Lay out the crescent rolls onto a cookie sheet.

3. Spread the pecans on first, then follow with the apple mixture.

4. Roll them up to make little bite size apple pies.

5. Bake for 10-12 minutes and enjoy! They taste best when they're fresh out of the oven!

10 Second No Bake Vegan Granola Recipe + Video

*This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #BetterWithCraisins #CollectiveBias

I am so excited to share this vegan granola recipe with you today! This is my 10-second, raw, no bake granola that I share on Snapchat almost every week! I make a big batch in the beginning of the week so that G and I get to enjoy the soft and chewy goodness. This Autumn-inspired recipe is infused with naturally sweetened medjool dates, and deliciously tangy Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries, you are seriously going to "Fall" in love with this recipe!

I used to grab Craisins® Dried Cranberries when I shopped at Sam's, but haven't seen them there in awhile. I snagged this bag at Target, though! They have both the 12 ounce and 24 ounce bags! 

Ingredients:

• 1 spotty, ripe banana
• 5 pitted medjool dates
• 1 cup organic rolled oats
• 1/2 cup Craisins® Dried Cranberries
• 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut shreds
• 1/2 teaspoon non-alcoholic vanilla extract

Method:

This is a pretty simple recipe! As you can see in the video, you literally just pour everything into the food processor and pulse until the dates and dried cranberries bind with the other ingredients, creating a soft, chewy, and crumbly bite!

I use Craisins® Dried Cranberries in sooo many things like salads, banana breads, muffins, and even our delicious vegan meatloaf! Did you know that 1/4 cup of cranberries is actually a serving of 1/2 cup of fruit? You can visit this link here to more recipe ideas and where to find this product near you.
