Apple Peanut Butter Cup Bites

6.20.2018

peanut butter

I literally eat this snack 5 days a week, but if you follow me on Instagram you know this by now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A few weeks ago when I was really on the ~low carb~ bandwagon I was jonesing for a carby sweet treat but hit a dead end for what I could actually eat. For awhile I was making this snack over a rice cake, and while that combo is still delish, swapping the cake for an apple is how this absolute fave was born.

Flash forward to this past weekend when I was stocking up to make these peanut butter treats and totally spaced that I had picked up cinnamon almond butter by accident. Insert quote about ‘there being no accidents’, because the cinnamon almond butter was an added bonus to an already poppin’ flavor combination.

All jokes aside, these bites are packed with rich peanut buttery dark chocolate, creamy (cinnamon) almond butter, crisp apple slices and sweet syrupy honey goodness. If you’re still confused as to why these are the bomb dot com let me break it down.

This snack is amazing for 3 reasons:

  • Lightish and low-carb (hello, apple)
  • Dark chocolate + Peanut butter = no brainer
  • Honey drizzle 100% seals the deal

And if that’s still not enough, did I mention these can be thrown together in 10 minutes or less and consist of 95% of ingredients you already have in your pantry? 🙌
