Directions

  1. There are three parts to this apple-pie-like dessert: the Orange-Tofu Cream (make first so it can chill); the Hot Raspberry Sauce (make second and keep it warm in a double boiler); and the croquettes (make last so they're served warm).
  2. In medium bowl, mix flour, nutmeg and 1/2 tsp. of the salt. In separate small bowl, mix maple syrup, vanilla and soy lowfat milk. Slowly add in liquid mix to dry ingredients, stirring with wooden spoon till batter is smooth. Set aside.
  3. In shallow bowl, mix coconut, cornmeal, 1 Tbsp. cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. salt. Set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on baking sheet; toast 8 min, then chop and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 200 degrees.
  5. Grate apples into medium bowl. (You should have about 2 1/2 c..) Add in lemon juice and toss to mix. Transfer apples to strainer and squeeze out excess water; return to medium bowl. Add in pecans, dates, remaining 2 tsp. cinnamon, ginger and 1/8 tsp. salt. Toss to mix well.
  6. Using heaping tablespoonfuls, form mix into balls, then squeeze tightly to compress and remove as much liquid as possible. Dip in soy lowfat milk mix, roll in coconut mix and set on plate.
  7. In large skillet, heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil over medium-high heat. When oil is warm but not smoking, add in croquettes in batches. Cook till croquettes are browned, about 45 seconds per side. Transfer to plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil. Place cooked croquettes in oven to keep hot.
  8. To serve, spoon about 1 1/2 Tbsp. Hot Raspberry Sauce onto dessert plate. Place 3 croquettes on sauce. Top croquettes with dollop of Orange-Tofu Cream. Drizzle sauce over cream. Garnish with mint sprigs. Repeat with remaining croquettes, cream and sauce.
  9. This recipe yields 12 croquettes.
