Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 apples
  • 1 ⅓ cups peanut butter

Suggested Toppings

  • roasted coconut
  • blueberries
  • strawberries
  • sprinkles
  • white chocolate
  • dark chocolate

Instructions

  1. Prepare Apples: Rinse the apples thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or residues.
  2. Slice Apples: Cut the apples into ½ inch thick slices, removing and discarding the top and bottom slices for better shape and presentation.
  3. Remove Cores: Use a small biscuit or cookie cutter, or alternatively a melon baller, to carefully remove the core from the center of each apple slice, creating a donut shape.
  4. Spread Peanut Butter: Evenly spread the peanut butter on one side of each apple slice, making sure to cover it thoroughly for maximum flavor.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle your favorite toppings such as roasted coconut, blueberries, strawberries, sprinkles, or drizzle melted white or dark chocolate on top for extra sweetness and texture.

Notes

  • Choose firm and crisp apples for best texture and to hold the toppings well.
  • To avoid browning, you can soak apple slices in a mixture of water and lemon juice before assembling.
  • Use natural peanut butter or your preferred nut butter as a substitute.
  • Get creative with toppings—nuts, seeds, or dried fruit also work well.
  • This recipe requires no cooking and can be prepared quickly for a healthy snack or dessert.
