Snack: "Peanut Butter Plus" Apples

So Delicious!   This is the perfect snack to make with the kiddos.


I originally got the idea for this from a Whole Foods recipe.

"Peanut Butter Plus" Apples
One apple (we prefer Pink Ladies, but any variety will work)
Peanut Butter
Squeeze of lemon Juice (if you want to keep the apples from browning)

Ideas for Optional Extras
Raisins
Chocolate Chips
Wheat Germ
Granola
Oats




You need an apple corer for this recipe (or a long, thin knife)

First, you core the apple. be sure to scoop out any extra seeds you missed the first time

Then, you slice the apples horizontally in an even number of slices (6 usually works best for us)

Spread the peanut butter and add the optional toppings.  My advice is to *not* try chocolate chips the first time like I did.  If you do, the kids will not take too well to having healthier options inside next time around) :))


We eat these for breakfast, lunch, snack, you name it.  Wonderfully wholesome, low carb, kid-friendly recipe!
