Recipe tips
It’s often the small details that make the biggest impact in the kitchen, so we’re sharing the tips we rely on when cooking and creating recipes
Choose your apples right! If you love a sweetness balanced by a hint of tartness with a satisfying crunch, Honeycrisp or Fuji apples are your go-to. On the tart side, Granny Smith apples bring a sharper, more tangy punch, creating a vibrant contrast with the sweet berries. If you prefer a softer texture with a rich, aromatic flavour, Golden Delicious apples are your ideal companion.
Questions about apple and raspberry topping
Apples and raspberries make a great and delectable addition to your breakfast bowl. If you want to know more about using them as a topping, keep reading.
How can you use apples and raspberries as a topping?
You can use apples and raspberries as a topping in their fresh, raw state to provide a burst of natural sweetness and texture. Alternatively, they can be simmered down into a raspberry compote or a velvety apple puree. If you are feeling fancy, how about some caramelised apples for a subtle sweet note?
What type of apple is best as topping for skyr or yoghurt?
If you are a fan of a sweet yet slightly tangy punch, you cannot go wrong with Honeycrisp or Fuji apples. For a sharper, more tart taste, Granny Smith apples would work well. If you prefer apples with a softer texture and rich, aromatic kick, Golden Delicious are your best bet.
Do you use frozen or fresh raspberries as a topping?
Fresh and frozen raspberries can both be wonderful toppings. If you love the crisp texture and fresh taste, go for fresh raspberries. However, if you are thinking of making a saucy compote or a luscious sauce as your topping, frozen raspberries really shine. They break down beautifully when heated, creating a perfectly sweet and tangy treat. They are also delicious frozen directly on top for a fresh, frozen, cold kick.

A sprinkling of sunflower seeds adds a nutty undertone and some crunch.

Delicious ways to use apples and raspberries on skyr
Fresh apples and raspberries offer a wonderful crunch and zing, but there are far more ways to use these as toppings.
You can caramelise the apples by cooking them gently in a bit of butter and sugar to give them a deep, sweet flavour and a slightly crispy exterior. Or make a raspberry compote by simmering down the raspberries with a touch of sugar until they release their juices and form a sweet-tart sauce.
