Equipment

  • Plate 
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • - 2 cups thinly sliced apples
  • - 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips
  • - 2 tablespoons caramel sauce
  • - 2 tablespoons chocolate sauce
  • - 1 tablespoon rainbow sprinkles
  • - 1 tablespoon chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts - for crunch and flavor enhancement
  • This combination of ingredients gives that perfect balance between crunch sweetness, and a little bit of fun!

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare Your Apples

  • Start by taking your fresh apples and slicing them thinly. I find that using a mix of sweet and tart apples adds depth to the flavor. Fuji or Honeycrisp apples offer great sweetness, while Granny Smith brings a bit of zing. Lay the slices out flat on a nice serving plate or platter, showing off their vibrant colors.

Step 2: Drizzle with Caramel and Chocolate Sauces

  • Next up, it’s time for the good stuff! Grab your caramel sauce and drizzle it generously over the arranged apple slices. Don’t hold back; let that sweet goodness flow! Follow it up with a drizzle of rich chocolate sauce. Sometimes I even like to mix it up with some melted peanut butter for an extra layer of flavor.

Step 3: Top with Fun Extras

  • Now comes the exciting part—adding your toppings! Sprinkle mini chocolate chips all over the apples, followed by showers of colorful sprinkles. Finally, add chopped nuts for that delightful crunch. This step adds not only flavor but also a lovely texture that everyone will enjoy!

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

  • Once your apple nachos are fully topped, serve them immediately. The contrast of the crunch from the apples and nuts against the sweetness of the sauces is simply irresistible. Grab a fork or just dive right in for a delicious experience.

Notes

- Use Fresh Apples: Fresh apples have the best flavor. Keep them crisp by slicing them just before serving.
- Choose Quality Toppings: Opt for good-quality caramel and chocolate sauces; the better the ingredients, the better the taste.
- Add More Toppings: Feel free to mix in or swap out toppings, like raisins or coconut flakes, for more fun!
- Keep it Colorful: Use a variety of apples for a visually appealing dish. Red, green, and yellow apples look amazing together.
- Perfect for Kids: Get kids involved in making their own toppings; they’ll love creating their own version of apple nachos!
