How to make Apple and Nut Butter Sandwiches
Preparation
Wash the apples and slice them in half. Using a teaspoon, scoop out the core. Remove any area from the stem and calyx of the apple.
Place the sliced apple half in a standing position and cut into 1/4 inch slices. You should get 3 or 4 slices per half, depending on the size of your apple. Cut the slices in half, vertically.
Assembly
Add a layer of nut butter to both slices of bread.
Layer one slice with apples, sprinkle with ground cinnamon, and add a light drizzle of maple syrup over the top.
Place the top half of the bread on the sandwich.
Cooking
Grease your griddle or skillet with coconut oil and heat over medium. Optionally, add a light coating of coconut oil to the top of your bread slice using a silicon brush.
Place the sandwich, oil side down, and cook for about 2 to 4 minutes.
Brush the top half lightly with coconut oil, flip, and cook for another 2 to 4 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve with any remaining fresh apple slices on the side.
Tips & Tricks
Use a silicon brush to evenly coat the bread with coconut oil for a crispier texture.
FAQS
Can I use any type of apple for this recipe?
Yes, you can use any type of apple you prefer. Sweet varieties like Fuji or Honeycrisp work well, but tart apples like Granny Smith can add a nice contrast.
What type of nut butter is best for this sandwich?
You can use any nut butter you like, such as almond butter, peanut butter, or cashew butter. Choose one that complements the sweetness of the apples.
Is there a way to make this recipe vegan?
Yes, this recipe is already vegan if you use a plant-based nut butter and ensure that the bread does not contain any animal products.
How can I make this sandwich gluten-free?
To make this sandwich gluten-free, simply use gluten-free bread instead of regular bread.
Can I prepare this sandwich in advance?
While it's best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare the apple slices and nut butter on the bread in advance. Just store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and assemble the sandwich just before cooking.
