Ingredients for Apple Stacks

  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Carrot
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter (or nut butter of your choice)

How to Make Apple Stacks

  1. Wash and thinly slice 1 large Granny Smith apple. Aim for slices about 1/8 inch thick.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of almond butter (or your preferred nut butter) evenly onto each apple slice.
  3. Gently sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon over the almond butter on each slice.
  4. Optional: Add a sprinkle of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch and flavor.
  5. Carefully stack 3-4 apple slices to create a 'stack'.
  6. Repeat with remaining apple slices and toppings.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the perfectly balanced sweet and tart flavors!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
