Apple Granita

I saw this on the new Food Network show starring Melissa D' Arabian and thought that it looked like a fantastic and low fat dessert. It was delicious and perfect for the hot summer!

2 c. applesauce ( I used cinnamon)
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 c. lowfat plain yougurt ( I used vanilla)
2 tbsp. maple syrup
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

Directions:
Combine applesauce and lemon juice in an 8x8 pan. Freeze until frozen. Combine the yogurt, maple syrup and cinnamon in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready for use.
When the applesauce is frozen, use a fork to scrape over it until it resembles shaved ice. Serve in a bowl topped with the yogurt mixture.
