Apple granola "cookies"

{'text': "Apple granola 'cookies' are a quick and healthy snack that combines the sweetness of apples with the hearty crunch of granola and the nutty richness of peanut butter. This simple recipe is perfect for those looking for a nutritious treat that can be made in just a few minutes."}

Ingredients:

1 apple
220g
2 tbsp peanut butter
33g
2 tbsp granola
16g
1 tbsp flaxseed
10g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Apple:
- Start by washing the apple thoroughly under running water.
- Using a sharp knife, core the apple and cut it into round slices approximately 1/4 inch thick. Aim for about 6-8 slices depending on the size of the apple.
2. Dry the Apple Slices:
- Pat the apple slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This will help the toppings adhere better.
3. Spread Peanut Butter:
- Take each apple slice and spread a generous layer of peanut butter on one side. You can use a small butter knife or a spoon to do this.
4. Add Granola:
- Sprinkle granola on top of the peanut butter. Press gently with your fingers so the granola sticks to the peanut butter.
5. Sprinkle Flaxseed:
- Evenly sprinkle flaxseed over the granola-covered apple slices. This will add a nice crunch as well as extra nutrients.
6. Serve:
- Lay the finished apple granola "cookies" on a serving plate and they are ready to enjoy!

Tips:

- Choose a crisp apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture.

- Use natural peanut butter without added sugar or hydrogenated oils for a healthier option.

- Feel free to add a pinch of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.

- Make sure to slice the apple evenly to ensure uniform 'cookies'.

- You can swap flaxseed with chia seeds or hemp seeds if desired.
