Sautéed Apples and Pears- No Sugar Added

I can't think of a more easy and delicious dessert for the fall than this one. Or, anytime of year for that matter!

It's super quick and simple. There's no added sugar, it's paleo and has vegan options. Plus, you have your choice of toppings! Ooey gooey sweetness!

Sometimes you just need a sweet treat. If you're like me, you want to stay away from sugar, but you still want to enjoy dessert. That's where this recipe comes in.

You can dress this up any way you like it. Here are some options:

• In addition to the cinnamon, you can add nutmeg or ginger.
• Drizzle with melted coconut butter or almond butter. 
• Break up a square of dark chocolate and place over warm fruit once plated. It melts quickly.
• If you're not a fan of coconut oil, try sautéing in butter.

• Braeburn
• Cortland
• Empire
• Fuji
• Golden Delicious
• Honeycrisp
• Winesap

For pears try:

• Bosc

However, feel free to use your favorites. I used Gala last time and it was scrumptious!
