- Place your fruit of choice evenly around the bottom of the pan. For fruit like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and cherries just rinse and dry the fruit. For fruit like pears, apples, and plums, you will want to wash, core, and slice the fruit, and peel if you prefer.

- Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until an inserted fork comes out clean.

While these green fruits pack a punch with 50 calories per serving, they are a good addition to chili or a salad. Check out the nutrition highlights of an avocado below!
