Apple Nachos

I am a hypocrite. I did NOT chop my pecans at all. I just threw them on top of everything right out of the bag.

Sometimes I want to adapt a recipe so that my gluten intolerant daughter can eat what the rest of us are eating. Here is our version of APPLE Nachos.

Ingredients

• 3 red apples (I used Gala)
• 1 green apple (I used Granny Smith)

You can use any combination of apples or use all one type. I used red AND green for the colour. And I only used one Granny Smith because I am not a fan of tart.

• 1/4 cup caramel topping (I used Smuckers Salted Caramel)
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon of coconut oil
• 1/2 cup pecans

Directions

• Wash, core and slice the apples. Arrange them on a platter. (I used two plates.)
• Chop the pecans into coarse pieces. Set aside.
• Pour chocolate chips and coconut oil in a mug. Put it in the microwave until melted (1-2 minutes). Spoon the mixture over the apples. Do so in lines.
• Heat up the caramel sauce in the microwave (1-2 minutes). Pour in dribbles on top of the chocolate dribbles. NOTE: If you heat and pour from the glass jar it comes in, be very CAREFUL, the jar is HOT.
• Sprinkle the pecans on top of the apples with the bi-coloured dribbles.
• EAT. You might need a wet wipe for your face and fingers. Just saying.

Your Turn . . . What was the last apple dish you had? . . . Have you had dessert nachos before?
