Stuffed Apple Dessert
I’m hanging on to the long weekend for one more day. 🙂 My lovely sponsor Debbie from Deliciously Inspired is my guest blogger today.-
I am very excited to write a guest post for Katherine’s Corner.
Although I just pulled a pumpkin cake out of the oven that once cooled will be finished off with an almond butter cream frosting, I truly do try to eat healthy most of the time.
But healthy doesn’t have to be boring; and I strive to translate what I like to bake into what can I make using good ole fashioned ingredients. So without further ado – here is the Stuffed Apple: nature’s answer with a little enhancing from me to the cupcake.
These are fast to put together and each one is its own work of art since they can all be “decorated” differently. I like to keep a plastic container that stores – raw sunflower seeds, raisins, mini chocolate chips (the darker the better), shredded coconut, chopped or whole nuts and candy sprinkles. I know the candy sprinkles aren’t really healthy but you use just a few and sprinkles make everything feel like a treat. This is wonderful project for children to get involved in.
Stuffed Apples –
Ready to Put It Together:
Apple of Your Choice – If at all possible use organic since apples are highly sprayed with pesticides.
Wash, cut in half, and remove seeds by creating a trench.
This will act as your cupcake.
Nut Butter (I use almond butter) Peanut Butter will work but peanuts are not nuts.
Spread a bit onto each half of the apple.
This will act as the frosting.
Now you are ready to decorate from the items listed above and can even add some fresh fruit.
Easy to do and delish too, thank you Debbie. 🙂
Well my bloggy friends what will you be putting in your apple?

Hi Karena,
Thank you for your comment. I will check your Giveaway out – best wishes with that.
Katie, I hope you had a wonderful, restful, and enjoyable Memorial Day weekend. Great guest post. Love the yummy, and healthy bites of the apple stuffed with the strawberries and nuts. Love the presentation, and the inviting way to have kids eat their fruit and still have fun with it! xo
Thank you Elizabeth. I think I created it because I’m a kid at heart.
This certainly has eye appeal! I can’t keep apples in the house long enough for something like this. Someone seems to bake them up as soon as they are brought home. There is apple pie waiting right now..
Hi Danielle – I can almost smell the pie baking – yum 🙂
Wow, sounds great. Will definitely try this with my Katie Rose. Thanks for sharing today Katherine and Debbie! 🙂
The idea of big and little people eating a healthy snack full of vitamins and protein makes me want
to do a cartwheel but I’ll contain myself.
This recipe sounds delicious! =)
Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks, Melissa, for your comment. They are pretty tasty.
