With holiday parties just around the corner I wanted to share several healthier dessert options. You do not have to give up desserts to be healthy! Just focus on healthy ingredients.
Samoa Apple Cookies
INGREDIENTS
1 apple
1/4 cup peanut, almond, or any nut butter, make sure it is a sugar free option
1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup dark or semi sweet chocolate chips
INSTRUCTIONS
Core your apple. Then slice it into rounds forming circle slices with a hole in the middle looking like a Samoa cookie.
Mix the nut butter and maple syrup/honey and vanilla. Next mix in the coconut flakes.
press equal amounts onto all the apple rounds.
Melt the chocolate in a small bowl. Then drizzle a little over each slice.
Place in the fridge to allow the chocolate to harden. Enjoy a guilt free cookie swap out.
NOTE: can make a full batch using 6 apples, ( increase all ingredients to X6) dip the apple rounds in lemon juice before placing any ingredients on top to avoid browning.
