Apple Sandwich

I love when I come across a recipe like this one on the whole foods website. It is an Apple Sandwich with Granola and Peanut Butter....sounds yummy and healthy too! Enjoy.


Ingredients
2 small apples, cored and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick rounds
1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
3 tablespoons peanut or almond butter
2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons granola

Spread one side of half of the apple slices with peanut or almond butter then sprinkle with chocolate chips and granola. Top with remaining apple slices, pressing down gently to make the sandwiches. Transfer to napkins or plates and serve.

Tip-
If you won’t be eating these tasty treats right away, start by brushing the apples slices with lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.

Can't eat Peanut Butter then try it with Almond Butter or Soy Butter. Instead of Chocolate Chips sprinkle Cinnamon on top!
