1 Golden Delicious Apple
1 Gala Apple
¾ teaspoon PICS cinnamon
3 oz. PICS Greek vanilla yogurt
2 oz. PICS Vanilla low-fat yogurt
1 tablespoon caramel dip
1 tablespoon peanut butter or WOWButter®
Fold the yogurts together with the caramel dip, peanut butter (or WOWButter®) and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon.
Wash, core & slice the apples. Place the apples in a large snap & seal storage bag. Add in a few shakes of the cinnamon approximately a ¼ teaspoon, seal the bag & shake until the apples are coated with the cinnamon.
Serve the apples with the dip!
Thanksgiving YUM FUN:
For a Thanksgiving twist place the dip into a small bowl. Use either chocolate chips or raisins to serve as eyes on the dip & cut a small piece of apple to serve as a turkey beak. Place the cinnamon covered apples around the dip bowl, on a larger plate to serve as turkey feathers alternating the colors of the apples.
WOWButter® is a peanut free, tree nut free, gluten free peanut butter alternative that can be located in the allergy friendly aisle in your Price Chopper and Market 32 Supermarkets.
Snack, snack, snacking? This recipe is great to pack in the lunchbox or to serve as an afterschool snack. The cinnamon apples help to avoid the brown apple blah.
Storage? You can keep cinnamon apples in a snap and seal storage bag in the refrigerator for several days. And, the dip can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days – 7 days.
