Snacktime :: Sliced Apples with Nutmeg
It’s that time of day when I start craving a snack. You too? Lunch is long gone and dinner isn’t for another few hours, however we’ve just got in from the cold and my tummy is rumbling. For healthy snacks, you’ve got to be creative. Let’s face it, I’d much rather hot cookies out of the oven! But since chocolate chip cookies aren’t for everyday, here’s a way to turn an apple into a treat.
Slice the apple horizontally, picking out the seeds afterwards and leaving you with tiny little center stars. Sprinkle with fresh nutmeg and if desirable – top with a bit of natural nut butter (almond, peanut, cashew). Hopefully that will hit the spot and hold you over until supper.
Enjoy!
