Healthy Snack Idea from PE: It is always great to eat seasonally and locally. Since apples are in season right now, here is another fun snack idea using this delicious and healthy fruit. Enjoy!
Apple Donuts
Ingredients:
· Large apple
· Spread (peanut butter, hazelnut butter, sun butter, or cream cheese)
· Toppings (sprinkles, chopped nuts, or mini chocolate chips)
· Lemon juice
Directions:
· Slice the apple into ¼ inch thick slices, cutting across the round center of the apple (instead of cutting through the core)
· Use an apple corer or mini icing tip to slice the core from the center of each slice so they are in a round shape like a donut
· Squeeze a bit of lemon juice on the apple slices and gently pat them dry. You want them to be as dry as possible in order to “frost” the donuts
· Add a thin layer of the spread to each slice
· Sprinkle with toppings
