The combination of sweet and tart apple flavors from the Fuji and Granny Smith apples, respectively, adds dimension to this apple dessert. We’ve also added in touches of apple butter and apple pie spice to help round out the flavor and taste better than anything you’d find in the frozen food aisle.
