Why It Works:
When you boil apple slices in milk, the natural sugars from the apple infuse the milk, creating a subtle sweetness and soft texture. It’s nourishing, light, and perfect as a quick snack or even a gentle dessert before bed.
Ingredients:
- 1 fresh apple (any variety you like)
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

Instructions:
- Prepare the Apple:
Wash, peel, and slice the apple into thin pieces. Remove the seeds. - Boil the Milk:
In a small pot, bring 1 cup of milk to a gentle boil over medium heat. - Add the Apple:
Once the milk is boiling, add the apple slices to the pot. Stir gently. - Simmer:
Let it simmer for about 3-5 minutes, until the apple slices soften and the milk thickens slightly, absorbing the apple’s natural sweetness. - Flavor (Optional):
For extra aroma and taste, sprinkle in a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom, or drizzle a little honey after removing from heat. - Serve Warm:
Pour into a bowl or cup and enjoy immediately!
