Ingredients
For the SugarBee® Apple Nachos:
4 SugarBee® apples
Lemon juice, enough to soak the sliced apples
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup dark melting chocolate
1 loosely packed cup freeze-dried strawberries
1/2 cup freeze-dried bananas
1/2 cup roasted peanuts
For the Cheesecake Dip:
1/2 cup cream cheese, warmed
1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon honey
Dash of cinnamon
Instructions
Core and cut the SugarBee® apples using an apple slicing tool. Place the apple slices in lemon juice while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
To make the cheesecake dip, combine the warmed cream cheese, vanilla Greek yogurt, honey, and cinnamon. Mix until smooth. Divide the dip between one or two small serving dishes and place them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Place the peanut butter and dark melting chocolate in separate ramekins. Warm each until smooth and easy to drizzle, stirring as needed.
Place the freeze-dried strawberries, freeze-dried bananas, and roasted peanuts in three separate small zip-top bags. Lightly pound each bag to break the ingredients into small pieces, then set aside.
When you are ready to assemble the apple nachos, drain the SugarBee® apple slices and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Arrange a layer of SugarBee® apple slices on a serving platter. Drizzle with melted dark chocolate and warm peanut butter, then sprinkle with the crushed freeze-dried strawberries, bananas, and roasted peanuts. Continue layering until all the ingredients have been used.
Serve immediately with the chilled cheesecake dip on the side and enjoy!
