Apples slices on white plate covered with yogurt and seed blend

Sliced Apple Nachos

Fruit on its own can be a healthy snack, but sometimes I want something extra to go with my fruit. I took inspiration from traditional savory nachos to drizzle apple slices in nut butter and yogurt and added toppings like sunflower seeds, cacao nibs, and hemp seeds.

The best part is that this recipe is very flexible, and you can get creative with the toppings you use. Chopped nuts and toasted shredded coconut would also be great on top!*

*If you are aware that fruit and apples have the potential to spike your blood sugar, try using half of an apple instead, or sharing this with someone. Green apples tend to have slightly less sugar than other apples.
