If you’re looking for a fun way to eat an apple this is it! These apple slices have melted peanut butter on them and chocolate chips. An easy and healthy yummy snack for everyone. You don’t have to wait until Fall to eat apples this way! Apple “nachos” are a great way to keep your blood sugar levels low with the help of some melted peanut butter on top of them. Peanut butter is a healthy fat and also includes some protein in it. Peanut butter is not the greatest source of protein but 2 tablespoons contain 8 grams. The dieticians I follow all say that eating a carb with protein and fat will help with that so everytime I eat an apple or a banana I will have peanut butter with it. It’s so good!
What Ingredients do I need?
In this section, you can find substitutes or suggestions for certain ingredients. I also will try and list out what the ingredients’ purpose is for. Apples - use green or red Dark, Semi Sweet, Chocolate Chips, or Sugar free chocolate chips if you’re on a specific diet Peanut Butter - my favorite is the Kirland, can also sub PB2 (Which is a powdered protein powder) Toppings for Apple Nachos - Granola, Crushed Oreos, Chopped nuts, different colored sprinkles, or your favorite crushed up candy bar. Reese’s peanut butter cups would be awesome. Walnuts - or any type of crushed up nuts Coconut Flakes Chopped bacon for something savory! Caramel Sauce if you don’t like peanut butter
How to make Apple Nachos
Thinly slice the apples into rings with a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife. On a slicer with 3 thickness settings, use the thickest.Lay the slices out on a large plate or platter, and squeeze the lemon juice over them to prevent browning.In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 10-15 second intervals on the microwave’s lowest setting, being careful not to burn the chips. Stir in between intervals until melted (overheating chocolate will result in a lumpy and gritty texture).Drizzle the chocolate with a spoon over the apple slices.Regular Peanut Butter: In another microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter for 10-15 seconds, to allow it to loosen, then drizzle the peanut butter with a spoon over the apple slices.If using PB2 Powder mix 2 tablespoons of powder together in a bowl and gradually mix in the water to your desired consistency. Start off with 2 tablespoons of water. May or may not need to add more If you want to add any extra toppings sprinkle them over the nachos.
