Apples & Twigs
Ingredients:
- 1 apple
- 1 packet peanut butter or seed/nut butter
- 2 Tbsp granola of choice
- 2 Tbsp mini semi sweet chocolate chips
At home:
Pack the granola and chocolate chips in a snack bag. For a backpacking trip, pack the apple into a cup or mug to protect. For day trips, slice your apple and toss with a little fresh lemon juice to prevent browning, then pack in a small bag. Tuck the peanut butter packet in with it. For ease in preparing, pack a small sheet of parchment paper to work on.
On trail:
Slice the apple up (if not already sliced) and lay on the parchment paper. Spread the peanut butter evenly on. Dip the slices in the granola bag, then enjoy!
Notes:
For best results use a small sized granola or run it through a blender/min food chopper to make small.
You can also make one slice up, then top with another apple slice to make an apple sammie.
PS: What kind of apple? Whatever YOU like best! You can also find bags of pre-sliced apples in many grocery stores these days, in the produce department.
Great for last minute trips – and consider using Justin’s Nut Butters to top!
