Apples are delicious just as they are, but they can be more fun and interesting when you dress them up a little for a scrumptious snack. We all know how yummy a spoonful of peanut butter can be slathered on an apple slice, but here are some more inventive things you can pair your apples with.
1. Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Slice up your favorite brand of cheddar cheese and place on top of an apple slice. The sweet and salty flavors will have you coming back for more. And what goes incredibly well with cheese and fruit? Why, fruit wine of course!
2. Almond Butter and Orange Marmalade
Slather a bit of almond butter and a spoonful of orange marmalade for a sweet and healthy take on the traditional peanut butter pairing.
3. Plain Yogurt, Honey, and Cinnamon
Whether you go with regular yogurt or Greek yogurt, add a drop of honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon to really bring out the flavor of the apple.
4. Cream Cheese and Sweet Pickle Relish
Who says cream cheese is just for bagels? Add it to an apple slice alongside a dollop of sweet pickle relish for a quick snack.
5. Ricotta, Lemon Zest, and Chopped Pistachios
Ricotta isn’t just for stuffed shells. Top your apple slices with a spoonful of ricotta, some lemon zest and a spattering of chopped pistachios for a protein punch.
6. Balsamic Vinegar, Brown Sugar, and Ground Pepper
You wouldn’t think these flavors would go well together but they are actually amazing. Sweet and salty save the day.
7. Berry Vinaigrette and Walnuts
The sweetness of the berry vinaigrette pairs well with the protein packed flavor of the walnuts to make a fun afternoon snack when you need a pick me up.
8. Arugula and Bacon
Who doesn’t love bacon? It’s not just for breakfast anymore. Wrap a slice of apple in bacon and top with a leaf of arugula for a mind-blowing sensation.
9. Prosciutto and Mustard
Same concept here. Wrap an apple slice with prosciutto and squirt some mustard on it. Fancy!
10. Horseradish Cottage Cheese Dip
Stir ½ teaspoon horseradish into ¼ cup cottage cheese, then sprinkle with dried dill. Makes a great dipping sauce.
