Ingredients
1 apple, sliced thin
1 ½ tbsp peanut butter
1 ½ tbsp dark chocolate chips
¼ tsp coconut oil
Finely chopped nuts (optional)
Unsweetened coconut flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Arrange the thinly sliced apple slices in a single layer on a plate or platter.
- Drizzle the peanut butter evenly over the sliced apples. If your peanut butter isn’t drizzly, melt it first in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-20 second intervals until it becomes smooth and easy to drizzle.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 15-20 second intervals, stirring in between each interval, until the mixture is melted and smooth.
- Drizzle the melted dark chocolate mixture over the apple slices.
- Top with any desired toppings, such as chopped nuts, unsweetened coconut flakes, or pepitas. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Nut butter alternatives: You can use almond butter or cashew butter if you prefer a different nut butter or if you want a more neutral flavor.
- Sweetener options: If you’d like extra sweetness, drizzle a bit of honey or maple syrup over the apples.
- Additional toppings: Consider adding chia seeds, cacao nibs, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for more flavor and texture.
