Paste cu nuca si mar copt / Pasta with walnuts and baked apple

O reteta simpla a copilariei, de paste cu zahar si nuca, pe care am reinterpretat-o folosind mar copt si indulcitor :) A iesit super buna si aromata, cu miresme de toamna, yummm! Si mai e si de post; ar fi mers tare bine si niste stafide, dar nu am avut in casa :)) Paste cu nuca si mar copt.

Ingrediente (2 portii):

• 100g penne Arnos
• 50g nuca macinata
• 40g indulcitor natural
• 1 mar
• 1/2 lgt scortisoara
• 2-3 lg stafide
• 1 lgt ulei de cocos (optional)

Fierbem pastele conform instructiunilor de pe ambalaj, eu am fiert pastele penne Arnos timp de 11 minute (trebuiau fierte 9 pentru cine le vrea al dente). Taiem marul cubulete si il coacem in cuptor pana intra usor furculita in el.

Intr-un bol mare punem pastele fierte si scurse, nuca macinata, indulcitorul, scortisoara si cubuletele de mar copt. Si stafidele, daca aveti. Amestecam bine si servim pastele calde, sunt suuuper bune si de comfort food, asa :)) Pofta mare!
