Peanut butter apple nachos

I guess I shouldn’t really call these “nachos” since there’s absolutely no chips or melty cheese involved, but you get the idea. Here, the chips are thinly sliced apples, and the cheese is melted peanut butter.  Add unsweetened coconut and mini chocolate chips, and you’ve got yourself the perfect afternoon snack. I shared this with my girls and it was a hit all around.

Peanut Butter Apple Nachos

2 apples, sliced thin

1 teaspoon lemon juice

3 tablespoons peanut butter

Unsweetened coconut

Mini chocolate chips

Spread your apples on a plate. Try not to get too many overlapping pieces, cuz you know, you want that peanut butter to be on EVERY SLICE. Spritz some lemon juice on the apples to keep them from browning. Melt the peanut butter in the microwave until it’s runny and drizzly (it should only take about 30 seconds). 

Drizzle the peanut butter over the apples with a spoon, and sprinkle the coconut and chocolate chips on top. I’ll trust you to add as much of those as you want. You may also want to add some nuts, like slivered almonds or pecans. Let it sit for a minute so that the peanut butter can set again (it’ll only take a minute or two, especially if your apples are cold from the refrigerator). Enjoy!
