Melt-In-Your-Mouth Coconut Cream Apple-Cinnamon Cups. A sweet treat, homemade

I had such a neat phone call several months ago with Jennifer, a Customer Service Rep at Tropical Traditions where we get our coconut oil products. She blessed me on several levels: she encouraged me with sincere affirming words, and when I asked about a good recipe using the coconut cream, she gave me her personal favorite recipe.

We made this easy and delicious healthy treat, and it is a real keeper! Just keep them refrigerated.

Coconut Cream Apple-Cinnamon Cups

The Ingredients:

  • 1 Red or Green tart apple, diced and cored
  • 3 TBSP Coconut Oil  (I used Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil)
  • 2 teaspoons organic Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 cup Coconut Cream Concentrate 
  • Remaining 1 TBSP Coconut Oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Raw Honey (do not heat to preserve the living enzymes in the raw honey) 
  • A sprinkle of Sea Salt, optional
  • A few slivered blanched Almonds per patty, optional

The Directions:

Melt-In-Your-Mouth Coconut Cream Apple-Cinnamon Cups. A sweet treatSauté the apples with the 3 TBSP of Coconut Oil until soft.

Once soft, add the cinnamon. In a bowl of hot water, place your cup of Coconut Cream Concentrate and your additional tablespoon of coconut oil to soften for approximately 10 minutes. Make sure not to get water in your mixture.

Once your coconut cream and coconut oil are melted, add your honey and your sautéed apples.

Once mixed, pour them in the muffin liners, sprinkle with a smidgen of sea salt, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is handcrafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer.

You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?

Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the  advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

I have also written a post about how coconut oil may benefit certain health conditions here.

Coconut Oil can be used in so many recipes! Here are a few ways that I have used it:

  • For most breakfasts, my daughter makes a variety of egg recipes, including omelets/frittatas, french toast, and egg-in-the-basket. She always uses coconut oil in the cast-iron skillet.
  • Coconut oil can be used for sautéing and caramelizing greens and onions, frying potatoes, and pan frying meats. Here, we show how we make greens and onions with coconut oil.
  • You can even use coconut oil in quick breads.
  • We made the richest pie using coconut oil and chocolate for the filling and shredded coconut for the crust. 1 slice will be plenty!

I get my coconut oil products from Tropical Traditions. If you have never ordered from Tropical Traditions in the past, you will receive a free book on Virgin Coconut Oil which explains the story of how they discovered this high nutrient coconut oil and the many ways it can be used to support health. The book will be automatically added the first time you order. Click on the book to see what it includes!

Coconut oil is incredible! I want to share only the best products with my readers.

  1. Hi! I just tried to enter your giveaway on 7/14 (just posted yesterday 7/13), but the rafflecopter says giveaway over. We love coconut oil and plan to order some from their sale!

    • Hi, Deb!
      We have had out of town guests, and I have not covered all my bases well. I apologize! I hope I fixed the problem for you and others 🙁 It is working now.

  2. I would use this coconut oil for cooking, baking and skin care products, just to name a few. I live coconut oil!

  3. We love coconut oil and use it daily for cooking/baking. I’ve never tried Tropical Traditions brand but would love to. I’ve always wanted to try making lip balm….that’s what I would do if I won!

  4. I’ve already started using it some for toothpaste, lotion, etc. but would like to start using a more “food grade” one for cooking, baking etc. We’re trying to make more moves toward healthier living, eating, etc.! Thanks for the giveaway.

  5. Started using coconut oil in the winter for skin, but have not used it much in cooking.
    Now we are in the process of making changes for better health. We have done an eden garden, started using raw milk, attempting to cut out GMO’s. I would love to learn about more recipes, and cooking with the oil, so I would do that if I win.
    I just found your site while looking into freezing raw milk.

  7. We use coconut oil for many things including cooking and topically! Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂

  9. I have been using coconut oil for years but I just placed my first order through Tropical Traditions. The only oil we use is coconut! I make toothpaste, lotion, deodorant and use it in all recipes. Thanks for the chance to win!

  10. How will I use coconut oil? Well, we use it mostly in cooking, but with me making lots of homemade personal/beauty products, I might end up using it that way, too!

  11. Oh my, would love to win this! I use coconut oil in baking, healthful treats and for skin care. Would also like to start using it in my hair.

  12. Wow! Coconut oil brings me back to my childhood in Miami, Florida. I can almost smell the beach, trees and coconut.

    Blessings!

    Sue

  14. I use coconut oil to replace other oils in cooking and baking, and I’ve also been trying oil pulling (swishing some around in my mouth for 15 minutes, then spitting it out, right before brushing my teeth).

  15. I love coconut oil for baking, cooking, using as lotion, eating by the spoonful… I would love to try the gold label kind!

  16. I have been reading much about virgin coconut oil. I would use this in my baking and just taking tablespoons of it daily.

  17. I now use coconut oil in all of my baking. I works out better than butter really and (don’t worry!) your muffins don’t taste like suntan oil, not at all!

  19. Right now I use it for making deodorant, drinking in my coffee (mmm!), treating skin issues, using in recipes…any way I can! I’m trying to find new ways to use it all the time — I’d love to try this recipe!

  22. I am new to using coconut for cooking and baking but I want to learn for better health.

  29. This giveaway’s exciting! We use coconut oil for just about everything: cooking, baking, body care, etc.! Thank you!

  30. I’ve been using a lower grade of coconut oil for lotions, soaps and chapstick, but if I won some of this “good stuff”, I would definitely use it to make your apple cinnamon recipe and of course some chocolate bon bons! 😉

  31. I use coconut oil in our granola, muffins, cookies (even the no-bake ones- so delicious!), and on my baby’s body; I even use it to take off my eye makeup! So gentle, and moisturizes my crow’s feet at the same time. Thank you so much for this opportunity!

  33. I love cooking with coconut oil! We also use it to season our cast iron pans, among lots of other things!

  37. I’d use it for cooking and baking: granola, popcorn, kale chips, muffins, pancakes, etc.

  40. I love Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil! I wish I could buy it locally. I hate paying shipping costs but will have to pay attention to the emails and watch for free shipping days. Thanks for the post!

  43. I LOVE coconut oil. I use it for everything from skin care to cooking to supplementing my pet’ diet. The stuff is amazing! This recipe looks so yummy and it is Paleo friendly too so that is a big plus for me. Thanks for sharing!

  46. We love making home made deodorant and body lotions. I also love cooking with it.

  48. These recipes look amazing! I am excited to try them. I have a crazy hormone imbalance and have been told to increase my coconut oil intake…but the idea of eating spoonfulls of oil doesn’t exactly appeal to me…it would be nice to help fix my body by eating one of those amazing coconut cream apple-cinnamon cups!

  50. I love to use coconut oil when I fry my eggs. I am looking forward to trying out a homemade chocolate/peanut butter bar recipes using Coconut Oil. Yum!!

  52. One of my fav. uses for coconut oil is on my sprouted grain toasted bread every morning, it really helps boost my thyroid function and I was able to reduce the medication I take for an underactive thyroid condition. The coconut oil doesn’t make the toast soggy like butter does.

  53. I love using it for my body and for cooking! I even keep some in the car for emergencies

  55. After reading about its benefits, my husband and I have been using solely coconut oil for everything. We use it as a substitute for anything requires butter. At first, we weren’t sure how we would feel about coconut taste, common to unrefined varieties, so we opted to get the refined coconut oil. However, after doing some research and finding out that unrefined coconut oil is the one with all the benefits, we’ve been trying different unrefined coconut oils out!

  58. We use CO All. The. Time. I like to mix it with cocoa powder and stevia and refrigerate it to make quick little ‘chocolate bars’ that are so good! I’m dairy and gluten free, so I’ll be shore trying your recipe up there. 😀

    • OK! Please let me know how you like them, Dolly~ Blessings to you and the family 🙂

  59. I use it for both, beauty products (hair conditioner) and in cooking for myself (raw diet) and baking for my children. Yum!

  60. Our family has switched to coconut oil over the past several years. Our most recent wonderful find for coconut oil was that we used all coconut oil in our ginger snaps (we usually use all butter, but were out). They were the best cookies we ever baked!

    • Oh, I will have to remember that, Sheila. Gingersnaps are one of my favorite cookies ever! Thanks for the tip 🙂

  62. I have tried the coconut oil and am so encourage with it. I had some issues with mental clarity and feel this oil helped. Would love to win the quart.

  63. I accidentally clicked enter before entering my email adress for the tropical traditions subscribtion. It is manu_2009 at gmx dot de. I hope this will still work.

  64. I use coconut oil for so many different things. I use it when cooking or baking. I also love making Shoshanna Easling’s chocolate drops. I recently made sun screen for my son and deodorant for myself which had coconut oil in them.

  67. I currently use coconut oil in baking, cooking, skin care, hair care, and oral care. So versatile!

  71. In my baking, I use coconut oil and don’t have to worry about washing it off my hands – just rub it in!
