Fall is the season of vata dosha, where the qualities of cold, rough, and dry are dominant. During this season, I try to keep my vata dosha in balance by eating cooked vegetables and fruit along with foods that are warming.
Apples are one of my favorite fruits of the fall. I enjoy biting into a nice crisp apple, but as the weather gets cooler I like to eat cooked apples. This recipe hits the spot and is one my family enjoys. I hope your family enjoys it too.
