How to Make Apple And Date Mousse
- In a medium saucepan, combine chopped apples, lemon juice, lemon zest, and maple syrup.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until apples are very soft (about 10-15 minutes). Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if the mixture becomes too dry.
- Remove from heat and let the apple mixture cool completely.
- Once cooled, add the pitted Medjool dates to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
- Add the cooled apple mixture to the blender and blend until light and fluffy (this may take a few minutes).
- Stir in the sesame seeds.
- Spoon the mousse into 4 dessert glasses or small bowls.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill before serving.
- Garnish with fresh lemon balm, mint, or lemon geranium leaves before serving.
