Anyone else love nut butter with apples? Well I do. Usually I just slice an apple up and dip it in, but I decided to be a little more artistic and exciting this time making “cookies”out of apple slices and frosting them with nut butter. Not just any nut butter though, maca maple laced almond butter for a boost of energy.
I didn’t stop there either, I sprinkled them with some of my favorite toppings, cacao nibs, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and some tart golden berries. They were yummalicious! I shared some with Eric and they made a wonderful flavorful snack. I love this kind of cookie! Healthful and sweetly satisfying!
Raw Apple Superfood “Cookies”
Makes 4
4 slices sweet apple (cut widthwise across the apple so they are round)
Topping:
1/3 cup raw walnut or almond butter
1 1/2 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp maca powder
a pinch sea salt
1/2 tsp maple extract
Sprinkles:
raw shelled hemp seeds
chia seeds
golden berries
raw cacao nibs
Mix together the topping ingredients in a bowl, then spread over the cookies. Sprinkle with the hemp seeds, chia seeds, golden berries and cacao nibs (feel free to add in your favorites as well), and enjoy!
this must be soooooo good
They are :)!
I omitted the maca, maple extract and goji berries since I didn’t have them on hand. Even without those ingredients, these were so delicious! It reminded me of a caramel apple. I actually had to remind myself that these were healthy! What a quick and easy dessert in a pinch. Thanks Amy!!!!
Happy you enjoyed them and made them your own :)! You are so welcome!
