This pilaf was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less apples or a different type of fruit, such as cranberries.

I'm not a big fan of apples in savory dishes, but I was pleasantly surprised by this pilaf. The apples added a nice sweetness and crunch, and the spices gave it a warm and savory flavor.
