Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Apples (medium-sized, sweet variety like Fuji or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts (optional, for garnish)
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and peel the apples. Use a box grater or food processor to grate the apples into thin shreds. Place the grated apples in a large bowl.
Add the lemon juice to the grated apples to prevent browning. Toss well to combine.
If you prefer a sweeter dessert, sprinkle the granulated sugar over the apples and stir until evenly mixed.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the apples and mix gently until the cinnamon coats the apple shreds evenly.
In a separate small bowl, mix the plain Greek yogurt with honey until smooth. Adjust the honey to your desired sweetness level.
To assemble, divide the grated apple mixture evenly into serving bowls or glasses. Top each portion with a dollop of the honeyed Greek yogurt.
Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped walnuts and a couple of mint leaves for added texture and freshness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Grated Apple Delight!
