Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole apples (any crisp variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup grapes (red or green)
- 4 ounces cheddar cheese (cut into cubes)
- 12 small marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 12 pieces skewers (bamboo or metal)
Instructions
Wash the apples thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut them into bite-sized chunks, leaving the skin on for color and texture.
Place the apple chunks in a mixing bowl and drizzle with lemon juice. Toss to coat to prevent browning.
Prepare your other ingredients: wash the grapes, cut the cheddar cheese into small cubes if not pre-cut, and set aside the marshmallows.
Assemble the skewers: begin by threading an apple chunk onto a skewer, followed by a grape, a cube of cheddar cheese, and a marshmallow. Repeat this sequence until the skewer is full, leaving about an inch of space at the top for easy handling.
Repeat step 4 until all skewers are assembled.
In a small bowl, mix the honey and ground cinnamon until well combined. Using a spoon or a small pastry brush, drizzle the honey-cinnamon mixture lightly over the assembled skewers.
Serve immediately for maximum freshness and enjoy this fun, versatile snack!
