Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Apples (medium-sized, any variety)
- 1 cup Peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 1 cup Granola
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Chia seeds (optional for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Wash and dry the apples thoroughly.
Slice the apples horizontally into even rounds, approximately 1/4-inch thick. Remove the core from each round using a small cookie cutter or a round vegetable cutter to create a stack-friendly shape.
Optional: Brush each apple slice lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Spread a thin layer of peanut butter or almond butter on one side of an apple slice.
Sprinkle granola evenly over the peanut butter layer.
If desired, drizzle a small amount of honey over the granola for added sweetness.
Place another apple slice on top of the prepared one to create a stack, and repeat the layering process until you have your desired stack height (typically 2-3 apple slices per stack).
Garnish the top of each apple stack with a pinch of chia seeds for added texture and nutrients, if desired.
Serve immediately as a snack or light dessert. Enjoy your fresh and crunchy Apple Stacks!
