Ingredients
  

2 large apples (Granny Smith or Fuji work best)

1 cup granola (flavor of your choice)

1/2 cup peanut butter or almond butter, softened

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or dark chocolate shavings

1/4 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened if preferred)

Optional toppings: chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans), whipped cream, or a dollop of yogurt

Instructions
 

Prep the Apples: Start by washing and drying the apples thoroughly. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, cut the apples into thin, even rounds to ensure an attractive presentation. Carefully remove any seeds or core from the slices.

    Create the Base: On a large serving platter, arrange the apple slices in a single layer. Overlap them slightly to create a visually appealing base for your nachos.

      Prepare the Nut Butter Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter or almond butter with the honey or maple syrup until smooth. If the mixture is too thick to drizzle, microwave it in short bursts (about 10-15 seconds) until slightly warm and easier to pour. Drizzle half of this mixture over the arranged apple slices.

        Top with Granola: Generously sprinkle the granola over the apples, ensuring every slice has a touch of that delightful crunch.

          Flavor It Up: In another small bowl, combine the remaining nut butter mixture with the ground cinnamon. Drizzle this spiced mixture over the granola and apple slices for an added flavor dimension.

            Add Sweet Treats: Finish your nachos by sprinkling the mini chocolate chips and shredded coconut over the entire assembly. For those who enjoy an extra crunch, add a handful of chopped nuts.

              Serve Immediately: For the best flavor and texture, serve the apple nachos right away! You can offer optional toppings like whipped cream or yogurt in small bowls for dipping alongside the nachos.
