Chef's tip

To add a little crunch and freshness, you can sprinkle a few granola clusters or fresh berries on top of the dessert! 🍓🥄 It adds an extra dimension of texture and flavor! 😍

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Cooked apple/walnut mixture: up to 2-3 months in airtight freezer bags. Yogurt does not freeze well.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Cooked apple/walnut mixture: 3-4 days max in an airtight container in the fridge. Add yogurt/honey before serving.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Prepare the apple/walnut mixture the day before. Cool completely before refrigerating.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Apple/walnut mixture: microwave 1-2 min on medium power, or in a saucepan over low heat 3-5 min.

Variations

Use almonds or hazelnuts instead of walnuts.
Add a pinch of cinnamon to the apples.
Serve warm or well chilled, after a stint in the refrigerator.

Mistakes to avoid

Caramelizing too fast: allow 5 to 7 minutes over medium heat, until the apples are tender and caramelized.
Letting the walnuts burn: 2 to 3 minutes is enough.
Cleaning the skillet between the two steps: the walnuts toast in the same skillet, with the caramel.

Frequently asked questions

How do you caramelize apples?

Melt 15 g of butter over medium heat, add the peeled apple cut into small dice and the brown sugar, then cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the apples are tender and caramelized.

How do you toast walnuts?

Add the walnuts to the skillet, no cleaning needed, and lightly toast them for 2 to 3 minutes to bring out their flavor. Then mix them with the caramelized apples.

How do you assemble the Greek yogurt with apples?

Spoon a layer of Greek yogurt into a glass or small bowl, add the mixture of caramelized apples and walnuts on top, then drizzle with a tablespoon of honey.

Which apple should you use for this breakfast?

A Gala or Fuji apple works well: peeled and cut into small dice, it becomes tender as it caramelizes. Enjoy right away or let it rest for a few minutes in the refrigerator.
