Note

Low / Moderate Salicylates, Low Glutamates, Low Amines

Low Chemical / salicylates if using pears.  Moderate salicylates if using Red or Golden Delicious apples.

The original recipe for this dessert used tart apples and added 4 tablespoons of sugar at step 4.  The apples and pears used in this recipe were sweet enough to not need the sugar.
