Ingredients

- Almond butter 2 tablespoons
Method
-
Wash the apple.
Rinse the apple thoroughly under cool running water to remove any dirt or residues. Use your hands to gently rub the surface while rinsing.
Tip: You can use a fruit brush to clean the apple skin thoroughly. -
Slice the apple.
Place the apple on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut the apple into thin slices or wedges. Aim for slices about 1/4 inch thick. Remove the core by cutting around it or using an apple corer if you have one.
Tip: Be careful when handling the knife; keep fingers away from the blade. -
Prepare the almond butter.
If your almond butter has separated oil on top, stir it well with a spoon to mix it evenly.
Tip: If almond butter is too thick, you can microwave it for 10-15 seconds to soften it slightly. -
Serve apple with almond butter.
Arrange the apple slices on a plate. Use a spoon to scoop the almond butter onto a small dish or directly onto the apple slices. You can dip the apple slices into the almond butter or spread it on top.
Tip: For extra flavor, sprinkle a little cinnamon on the almond butter.
Pro tips
- To prevent apple slices from browning, lightly brush them with lemon juice.
- Use natural almond butter without added sugar or salt for a healthier snack.
