Ingredients
- 2 whole Apples (preferably crisp varieties like Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional for added warmth)
- 1 whole Lime
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (for vegan option)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Water (to rinse and prepare apples)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the apples thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or residue.
Step 2
Slice the apples into even wedges or thin rounds (depending on preference) and remove the seeds or core pieces.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, ground cinnamon (if using), and salt.
Step 4
Cut the lime in half and squeeze fresh lime juice over the apple slices. Toss gently to ensure all slices are evenly coated.
Step 5
Drizzle the honey or maple syrup over the apple slices, then sprinkle the chili powder mixture evenly over the top.
Step 6
Use a clean spoon or your hands to toss the apple slices so the spices and seasonings are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Serve immediately as a snack or appetizer, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours to keep the apples fresh and crisp.
