Ingredients
- 2-3 Units Apples Green or Red
- Sliced almonds
- 1/4 Cup Tahini
- 1/4 Cup Maple Syrup
- 2 tbsp Cacao Powder
- 1 tbsp Vanilla
- Pinch Salt
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Greek Yogurt
- Dark Chocolate Chips
- 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
Instructions
For the monster's body:
- Wash and dry apples, slice each apple into quarters, then cut out the core. Make a deep slit in the skin-side of each apple quarter to create a mouth. Don't cut all the way through
For the eyes
- In a small bowl, mix the coconut Greek yogurt with maple syrup. This creates the white of the eyes.Line a small tray or plate with parchment paper. Spoon the yogurt mixture into desired sized dollops, shaping them into oval or round "eye" shapes. Press one dark chocolate chip point-side-down into the center of each yogurt dollop to create a pupil. Carefully place the tray in the freezer for 30-60 minutes, until the eyes are firm to the touch.
Make Monster Coating:
- Mix tahini, maple syrup, Cacao powder, vanilla and salt until smooth. Spread thickly over each apple quarter.
