apple recipe dates easy plant based snack fall produce fall treat healthy snack healthy treat plant based plant based for beginners vegan Oct 27, 2023

Apple covered in dairy free date caramel sauce.

Apple Nachos with Caramel Sauce
Serves: 4-8 • Total Time: 15 minutes • FODMAP rating: high

A very easy all-fruit treat that is very fun to make and eat! For a dessert nacho bar party, let everyone make their own plate and customize their toppings.

Ingredients
Caramel Sauce
6 to 8 large medjool dates or 12 deglet noor dates*
½ cup canned light or regular coconut milk
¼ cup hot water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Apple Nachos
4 apples, consider 2-4 different varieties and colors
¼ cup peanut butter or almond butter
shredded coconut
chopped nuts
dried cranberries
mini chocolate chips

Instructions
1.Blend all the caramel sauce ingredients together in a blender until very smooth.
2.Arrange apple slices on a plate.
3.Slightly melt nut butter in the microwave for 30 seconds, if needed, to be pourable. It's best to not use the bottom of a jar of natural nut butter, as it's usually stiff.
4.Drizzle caramel sauce and then peanut or almond butter over the apples.
5.Sprinkle with desired toppings--coconut, chopped nuts, chocolate chips, etc.
6.Serve immediately.

*Don’t forget to preload on vegetables before you eat!
*If dates are hard, soak in the water and coconut milk for 30 minutes before blending.
*FODMAP swaps: Instead of dates use ½ cup of maple syrup or swap out 1 maple syrup:2 date portions as tolerated; keep apple portions to under ⅛ whole apple or ¼ cup
*Nut-Free: Use sunflower seed butter, soynut butter, or even cookie or granola butter in place of nut butter, which may alter taste
