Apple almond butter sandwiches with granola are a delicious and nutritious snack that is quick and easy to prepare. This recipe incorporates the sweetness and crunch of fresh apples, the creamy texture of almond butter, and the satisfying crunch of granola and almonds. Perfect for a midday snack, a light breakfast, or a quick energy boost, these sandwiches are both healthy and flavorful.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp almond butter
33g
1 apple
180g
1/4 cup almonds
24g
1/4 cup granola
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Apple:
- Wash the apple thoroughly under running water.
- Using a sharp knife or an apple corer, core the apple to remove the seeds and create a hollow center.
- Cut the apple horizontally into slices approximately 1/4-inch thick. You should get about 6-8 slices from an average-sized apple.
2. Chop the Almonds:
- Place the almonds on a cutting board.
- Using a sharp knife, coarsely chop the almonds into small pieces. Alternatively, you can place them in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
3. Assemble the Sandwiches:
- Take an apple slice and spread a thin layer of almond butter on one side.
- Sprinkle a small amount of the chopped almonds over the almond butter, pressing lightly so they stick.
- Add a layer of granola on top of the almonds, again pressing lightly for adherence.
- Place another apple slice on top to form a sandwich.
- Repeat the process for the remaining apple slices.
4. Serve:
- Arrange the assembled apple almond butter sandwiches on a plate.
- Serve immediately to ensure the apple slices stay fresh and crisp.

Tips:

- Choose a crispy apple variety like Honeycrisp or Fuji to enhance the texture of the sandwich.

- To make the almonds easier to spread, consider chopping them finely or using almond slivers.

- For an extra touch of flavor, try lightly toasting the granola before adding it to the sandwich.

- Feel free to experiment with different types of nut butter; peanut butter or cashew butter can make delicious substitutes.

- If you prefer a sweeter snack, drizzle a small amount of honey or maple syrup over the almond butter before adding the apple slices.
