Ingredients
Scale
Apple Rings
- 2 apples (any variety)
Spread and Toppings
- 1/4 cup nut or seed butter (peanut, almond, sunflower)
- 1/4 cup granola or crushed cereal
- Optional: honey drizzle
- Optional: mini chocolate chips
- Optional: chia seeds
Instructions
- Wash and slice the apples: Thoroughly wash the apples and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rings to form the base and topping of your sandwiches.
- Core the apple rings: Using a small round cutter or a knife, carefully remove the seeds and core from each apple ring to create a hollow center.
- Spread nut butter: Evenly spread your choice of nut or seed butter on one side of an apple ring to add rich flavor and creaminess.
- Add granola and extras: Sprinkle granola or crushed cereal over the nut butter for crunch. Add optional ingredients like honey drizzle, mini chocolate chips, or chia seeds to enhance taste and texture.
- Assemble sandwiches: Place another apple ring on top to sandwich the nut butter and toppings, gently pressing to keep it together.
- Serve or store: Enjoy your apple ring sandwiches immediately for the freshest taste, or store them in an airtight container with a splash of lemon juice to prevent browning until ready to eat.
Notes
- Use firm apples for better structure and crunch.
- Adjust nut butter type and toppings per your dietary preferences.
- The sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.
- Lemon juice prevents apple rings from browning when stored.
- Try different granola flavors or mix-ins for variety.
