2021, the year we thought life would return to “normal”. But here we are, on to 2022, still wearing masks, social distancing, and working from home. Another thing left unchanged is the desire to eat healthy, which for many Americans is no longer a choice – it’s a necessity. In times of uncertainty, it’s not a big surprise that people are continuing to seek healthier options, and spending more time in the kitchen experimenting with recipes brings a feeling a normalcy and joy back to the table. With North Coast recipes, you can find comfort in the fact that all are made healthier with the addition of apple sauce, apple juice, or apple cider vinegar.
We always enjoy tracking your favorites, and to no surprise, it’s a nice combination of health and comfort! So here you are, the top eight American favorites:
It doesn’t have to be Thanksgiving or turkey to enjoy a delicious brined bird. Immersed with deep flavor and oh so tender, this is a brine to keep in the books!
North Coast Apple Sauce baked right into these delicious, healthier-for-you breakfast treats will make you the rock star of the kitchen! Explore different flavor profiles with any of our apple sauce varieties. Apple Sauce with cinnamon is our top pick!
A healthy granola naturally sweetened with North Coast Apple Juice and maple syrup. It’s a customizable, low sugar granola that’s subtly sweet. This one is great for breakfast, dessert, or in-between snacks and so good in a parfait.
Flaky scones are usually all about butter, but not these. Adding North Coast Apple Sauce not only cuts down on the fat, but also adds a pure and delicious apple flavor. And don’t be intimidated, fresh homemade scones are so easy to make any day of the week! It’s no wonder these have been on the favorite list for so many consecutive years!
We all know that adding Apple Sauce to baked good recipes will make cakes and muffins super moist, but did you know that adding it to your favorite burger recipe will give you the same benefit? It’s true. This was the juiciest burger we’ve ever had in our kitchen, and certainly called for multiple napkins. Exceptionally easy to make and oh so good!
Chocolatey goodness with bananas and Apple Sauce too? Yep, it’s true! Who would have thought that adding two fruits to this recipe would have such an amazing turnout? Let’s just consider this a health cake, shall we? 😊
This easy, flavorful four-ingredient pulled chicken recipe is great for busy weeknights. Make it low and slow in the slow cooker or fast and furious in the Instant Pot, whichever suits your schedule. It’s no wonder this is a fav! Serve on brioche buns with coleslaw and pickles.
2020 brought millions of sourdough starters and bagel recipes to kitchens nationwide and it’s continued in 2021. Most people don’t know this, but making homemade bagels is one of the easiest things to do in the kitchen. It may take a few hours from start to finish but most of this time is just allowing the dough to rest and rise. So, while this is being done, feel free to go and do the same. Warm and chewy yumminess awaits.
