Ingredients
- 2 large green apples
- 2 large red apples
- 4 tablespoons of your chosen spread e.g. 100% peanut butter, nut butter or hazelnut spread (see recipe below)
- {HAZELNUT SPREAD} makes 3/4 cup
- 1 cup lightly toasted hazelnuts
- 2 tablespoons cacao powder
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 4 Medjool dates, pitted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons macadamia oil or coconut oil
Method
Step 1
Cut the apples either side of the core into 5mm thick slices and pair up similar sizes. -
Step 2
Spread the apple slices with your chosen spread and sandwich together. -
Step 3
Use a ‘festive’ cookie cutter to cut out the centre of the apple sandwich. Don’t throw this cut piece out, it’s just as nice! -
Step 4
{HAZELNUT SPREAD}
Add the hazelnuts to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blitz for a few minutes or until you have a sticky dough-like consistency. Add the remaining ingredients and process until you have a smooth chocolate spread. Keep in a sterilized glass jar in the fridge for 1 – 2 weeks. -
Step 5
Storage: the apple sandwiches are best served immediately as the apples will begin to brown.
For a nut free alternative, try cream cheese instead of the nut butters/spreads. -
