Method

Prepare the Apple.
Start by washing your apple under cool running water to remove any dirt or residues. Use a clean kitchen towel or paper towel to dry it. If you prefer, you can peel the apple, but leaving the skin on adds extra fiber and nutrients.
Tip: Use a sharp knife and a cutting board to safely cut the apple into slices or bite-sized pieces for easier eating. -
Measure the Almonds.
Take a kitchen scale or measuring cup to measure 1 ounce of raw almonds. This is roughly 23 almonds. You can eat them whole or chop them up if you prefer smaller pieces.
Tip: If you like, lightly toast the almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes to enhance their flavor, but this is optional. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Place the apple slices and almonds on a plate or in a bowl. You can eat them separately or combine a few almonds with each apple slice for a tasty bite.
Tip: Pair this snack with a glass of water or your favorite tea for a refreshing complement.
Pro tips
- To keep apple slices from browning, sprinkle a little lemon juice on them.
- Store almonds in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to keep them fresh longer.
