What’s the first thing your kids say when they get home from school?  If they are like mine, it’s “What’s for Snack?”   I still remember coming home from school starving – especially if you had the early lunch period at 10:45!

This apple sandwich is fun and healthy!  It’s perfect for a quick morning breakfast or a yummy afternoon snack to tide them over until dinner; you can even pack in a lunch box.  All you need to do is take your apple, cut it into slices and top it with peanut butter, granola, and mini chocolate chips {also try raisins, nuts, coconut, or cinnamon; be as creative as you like!}

Let  your little ones spread the peanut butter and sprinkle the granola – they will love them even more.

P.S.  You really don’t have to have kids to enjoy these tasty little sandwiches – I love them for breakfast and sometimes lunch! 😉

Apple Sandwiches

Ingredients

1 large apple
peanut butter
granola
mini chocolate chips or raisins, nuts, coconut, cinnamon, etc.

Directions

Wash and cut apple into 4 slices. Core the apple with an apple corer or a small cookie cutter will work.  {You could cut fun shapes like stars and hearts.}  Spread peanut butter on one slice.  Sprinkle with granola and chocolate chips.  Top with another slice of apple.

Note:  If you want to pack these in a lunch box, brush each apple slice with lemon juice to keep it from turning brown.
