As parents, we’re always looking for healthy foods for our kiddos. Rather than giving them the normal pb&j – shake it up a little. Best of all, it’s healthy!
This simple meal is packed with protein, fiber, fresh fruit, and yumminess.
If you have an apple corer, it will make this recipe much easier, but you can also use a cookie cutter if need be.
Apple Sandwiches with Granola and Peanut Butter
- 2 small apples, cored and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick rounds
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
- 3 tablespoons granola
- 2 tablespoons raisins or semisweet chocolate chips – optional
Spread one side of half of the apple slices with peanut or almond butter then sprinkle granola and any additional ingredients. Top with remaining apple slices, pressing down gently to make the sandwiches. Transfer to napkins or plates and serve.
