Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji recommended)
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (natural preferred)
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
- 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt
- Optional toppings: shredded coconut, chopped nuts, dried cranberries, honey, cinnamon
Instructions
- Wash and dry the apples. Core and slice into thin rounds, about 1/4-inch thick.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on a large plate or platter.
- Warm the peanut butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-30 seconds until runny but not boiling. Add a teaspoon of coconut oil or milk if too thick.
- Drizzle the warm peanut butter over the apple slices in zigzag patterns for even distribution.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the drizzled apples. Press gently to adhere if needed.
- Finish with a light sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
- Serve immediately for best texture.
Notes
For best results, serve immediately to keep apples crisp. If prepping ahead, toss apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning and store components separately. Warm peanut butter slowly to avoid burning. Don’t skip the sea salt—it enhances all flavors.
