Apple and Nut Butter Sandwiches

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.

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.

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.
