Pasta with apples and walnuts - a simple and delicious dessert for fasting Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 10 minutes Total time: 25 minutes Servings: 4 Are you looking for a quick and delicious recipe for a dessert during fasting? I suggest pasta with apples and walnuts, a surprising combination that will delight your taste buds. This simple recipe will guide you step by step to achieve a perfect result. Ingredients: - 200 g pasta (preferably short pasta, such as penne or fusilli) - 1 large apple (about 200 g) - 3 tablespoons chopped walnuts - 1 tablespoon margarine (or coconut oil for a vegan option) - 2-3 tablespoons sugar - Vanilla sugar (to taste) - Cinnamon (to taste) - A pinch of salt (to enhance the flavor) Instructions: 1. Boil the pasta: In a large pot, add salted water and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions, about 8-10 minutes, until al dente. It's important to cook them correctly so they don't become too soft. 2. Cool the pasta: After the pasta is cooked, drain it well and rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking process. This step is essential to maintain the perfect texture of the pasta. 3. Prepare the filling: In a large skillet, melt the margarine over medium heat. If you opt for coconut oil, it should melt quickly. Add the drained pasta and grated apple, without peeling it, for extra nutrients and texture. 4. Caramelize the mixture: Sprinkle the sugar over the pasta and apples, gently mixing to combine. Let them sauté for 2-3 minutes, until the apples become slightly soft and the sugar starts to caramelize. Don't forget to stir constantly to prevent sticking. 5. Add the walnuts and flavors: Turn off the heat and add the chopped walnuts, vanilla sugar, and cinnamon to taste. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors throughout the mixture. 6. Serving: This pasta with apples and walnuts can be served warm or cold. A wonderful idea is to sprinkle some whole walnuts on top for a more attractive appearance. You can also add a drizzle of maple syrup or a teaspoon of honey (if you are not fasting) for extra sweetness. Practical tips: - You can replace the apple with pears for an equally delicious version. Caramelized pears add a soft texture and natural sweet flavor. - If you want to add a touch of acidity, you can incorporate some lemon or orange pieces. These will balance the sweetness of the dessert. - Experiment with different types of nuts, such as almonds or hazelnuts, to vary the texture and flavor of this quick dessert. This recipe for pasta with apples and walnuts is not only simple but also versatile, allowing you to adapt it according to your preferences. Enjoy every bite and savor a dessert you can prepare in a few minutes, perfect for a quiet evening or a festive meal!
