As we settle into apple season and Monday night football, we can’t imagine a more suitable game day dish than this apple nachos recipe. This apple nachos recipe is sweet, tart, crunchy, and absolutely scrumptious!
While regular chips and queso dip may be a go-to for game day, we like adding sweet and healthy options like these apple nachos to the mix too. Instead of sugary desserts and baked goods, you can put out a platter of apple slices covered in delicious and healthy toppings.
These apple nachos are topped with a drizzle of peanut butter, some unsweetened coconut flakes, and mini dark chocolate chips. They’re incredibly easy to put together and even easier to eat.
One of the best parts about this apple nachos recipe is that it will fit right into the easy finger food category that game day eats tend to fall under. Friends can grab an apple slice to munch on without much effort or thought as they watch the big game on the screen.
The other bonus, of course, is that this is a relatively healthy snack to munch on. You don’t have to feel bad about indulging in excess carbs or fat, and it’s one of the healthier ways to satisfy a desire for a salty and sweet treat.
