Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces apples (medium size, any variety)
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or flavored, if preferred)
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 cup granola
- 0.5 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened or sweetened as per preference)
- 0.25 cup freeze-dried strawberries (crushed)
- 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Wash and dry the apples thoroughly.
Using a sharp knife or an apple corer, slice the apples horizontally into rings about 1/4-inch thick.
Remove the core from each slice to create donut-like rings. You can use a small round cookie cutter or the tip of a knife for this step.
In a bowl, mix the plain Greek yogurt with honey if you'd like additional sweetness (optional).
Prepare small bowls for each topping: granola, shredded coconut, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, and mini chocolate chips.
Dip each apple ring into the yogurt, ensuring one side is evenly coated. Alternatively, use a spoon to spread the yogurt over the surface of the apple ring.
Immediately press the yogurt-coated side of the apple ring into the toppings of your choice. Get creative by mixing and matching toppings on different rings.
Place the finished apple rings on a parchment-lined tray or plate.
Refrigerate the apple rings for 10 minutes to allow the yogurt to firm up slightly, or serve immediately if desired.
Enjoy these fruity and colorful apple rings as a snack or a fun dessert!
