Print Recipe

Crisp apple slices topped with a warm, salty-sweet peanut butter drizzle, chocolate chips, nuts, granola, and coconut. A quick, no-bake snack that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, to prevent browning)
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt (plus extra for sprinkling)
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
  • ¼ cup chopped nuts (almonds, pecans, or walnuts)
  • ¼ cup granola
  • 2 tablespoons shredded coconut (unsweetened or sweetened)
  • Optional: a drizzle of melted chocolate or caramel

Instructions

  1. Wash and slice apples into thin wedges about ¼-inch thick. Toss with lemon juice if using to prevent browning.
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine peanut butter, coconut oil, and maple syrup. Stir continuously until smooth and glossy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sea salt.
  3. Arrange apple slices in a single layer on a large serving platter or wooden board, slightly overlapping.
  4. Drizzle the warm peanut butter mixture generously over the apples using a spoon, squeeze bottle, or zip-top bag with the corner snipped.
  5. While the peanut butter is still warm, sprinkle dark chocolate chips, chopped nuts, granola, and shredded coconut evenly over the apples. Add a sprinkle of flaky sea salt if desired.
  6. Serve immediately while apples are cold and crisp and the drizzle is warm and gooey.

Notes

Best served immediately. For make-ahead, prep apples and drizzle separately and assemble just before serving. To prevent browning, toss apples with lemon juice. For a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter and skip nuts. For a lower-sugar option, use sugar-free chocolate chips and skip the maple syrup.
