Ingredients

  • 2 large apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or any favorite variety)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (to prevent browning)
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (or nut/seed butter of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons granola or crushed nuts
  • 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips or raisins (optional)
  • A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss slices lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. Arrange apple slices on a large plate or platter in a single layer, slightly overlapping.
  3. Warm peanut butter in the microwave for 15–20 seconds until drizzle-able. Drizzle over apples using a spoon or piping bag.
  4. Drizzle honey or maple syrup on top.
  5. Sprinkle granola, crushed nuts, chocolate chips, raisins, or desired toppings.
  6. Dust with cinnamon if using. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use almond or sunflower seed butter for allergy-friendly variations.
  • Add fresh fruit like strawberries, bananas, or blueberries for extra flavor.
  • Drizzle melted dark chocolate for a dessert-style version.
  • Boost protein with hemp seeds, chia seeds, or almonds.
  • For crowds, use multiple apple varieties for a colorful platter.
