Ingredients
  

3 large apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1/2 cup creamy almond or peanut butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)

1/2 cup granola (your choice, preferably with nuts and seeds)

1/4 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1/4 tsp cinnamon

Optional: chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans) for extra crunch

Optional: a few dashes of sea salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples:

    Start by washing the apples thoroughly. Core and slice the apples into thin wedges. If you prefer, you can also fan them out for a more elegant presentation.

      Make the Drizzle:

        In a small mixing bowl, combine the creamy almond or peanut butter with honey or maple syrup. Mix until smooth. If you’d like a thinner consistency, you can add a teaspoon of water to help with drizzling.

          Assemble the Nachos:

            On a large serving plate or a wooden board, arrange the apple slices in a beautiful overlapping pattern to create a nacho-style base.

              Add the Toppings:

                Drizzle the almond or peanut butter mixture generously over the apple slices. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips evenly across, followed by the granola, shredded coconut, and cinnamon. For an added crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts at this stage.

                  Finish it Off:

                    To amplify the flavors, finish with a few dashes of sea salt, which will enhance the sweetness of the apples and chocolate.

                      Serve:

                        Serve immediately while the apples are fresh and crisp! Encourage guests to dig in with their hands or provide forks for a more civilized experience.
