We sautéed seasonal, fresh fruits and then added a dollop of creamy whipped topping to tie it all together. Absolutely delicious. It's beautiful and sweet enough to serve a crowd, and very easy to scale up the ingredients if you're having more than four people over. The combination of Granny Smith apples, Bosc or Bartlett pears, and cranberries, along with the cinnamon, vanilla, and tofu topping, which comes together quickly in the food processor, is a delightfully unique twist on a classic fruit dessert. You'll never go back to traditional whipped topping again after giving this recipe a try. Feel free to use figs, pineapples, or mangoes if you want to mix things up a bit.
