This festive recipe comes with health benefits too!

Stewed apples or #applesauce has the ability to heal the mucosal lining, that protects the entire GI tract, as well as feeding the beneficial bacteria in the intestinal microbiome. When the apples are left to simmer, pectin is released and becomes the perfect nourishment for the good bacteria in the gut, helping their colonies to multiple and heal the gut.
