1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or butter
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced

-

-

Notes
Use rolled oats, not quick oats—they hold their texture better
Let the mixture sit for 5–10 minutes before baking to absorb moisture
Dice the apples small for even baking
Don’t overbake—it should be firm but not dry
Let it cool slightly before slicing so it holds together well
