Tips
It is also ideal when breaking the fast with a cup of tea. Packed with fruit and sweetened with honey, you will want to make this again and again as it becomes a great family favourite. Granny Smith apples are a favourite of mine as they are crisp, juicy and do not oxidise as fast as other apples.
