Notes
*For a lower carb option, I suggest replacing the apple with asian pear. Most asian pears are very low in sugar. If these are still too much sugar for your diet, I suggest replacing the apple with jicama. You still get a nice juicy crunch, but they're super low in sugar. Jicama will add about 10g net carbs to the entire recipe. // **For low carb and keto, I suggest making your own keto-friendly dried cranberries using a recipe like this one! If you're not feeling that ambitious, you can just omit the dried cranberries altogether.
