- Warm the peanut butter and chocolate sauce for a few seconds in the microwave. Stir until smooth and easy to drizzle.
- Drizzle both on top of the sliced apples
- Evenly sprinkle cinnamon sugar, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, and any other toppings you would like. For a sweet and salty finish, add a small pinch of flaky sea salt. Serve immediately.
Notes
This recipe should be served soon after it’s made. The apples will stay fresher and taste crisp. If you are looking to save it, wrap plastic clings around the plate and keep in the refrigerator for max 2 hours.
You can easily dress up these nachos by using colorful sprinkles into fall dessert, Halloween treat, Thanksgiving side or Christmas dessert.
Since nachos are all about layering, I love to add some chocolate sauce , chocolate chips and shredded coconut on top. You can use as many toppings of your choice and what you have easily available.
