Maple Granita Recipes

Steps:

• Stir 2 tablespoons syrup and pinch of salt into juice. Transfer to a shallow 2-quart dish. Freeze 2 hours, scraping with a fork every 30 minutes (mixture should icy and fluffy).
• Stir together sour cream, remaining tablespoon syrup, pinch of salt, and cardamom if using. Divide among 4 bowls. Top with granita and orange segments.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Mix maple syrup and coconut oil together in a bowl; add oats, pecans, and almond flour and mix until evenly coated. Spread onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• For the Granita: In a shallow 8-inch square pan, stir the applesauce and lemon juice together and spread the mixture evenly in the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
• For the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the yogurt, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Chill the sauce until ready to serve.
• Remove the granita from the freezer. With a fork, scrape the surface of the granita to gently fluff it up. Serve immediately, in dessert glasses or dishes, drizzled with yogurt sauce.
