Apple Nachos
This post is sponsored in conjunction with #AppleWeek. I recieved product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of AppleWeek recipes. All opinions are my own. This post from 2010 has been updated with a new photo, text, and a printable recipe card.
To wrap up AppleWeek 2018, I'm revisiting a family favorite, Apple Nachos from Taste of Home. I've made these dozens of times with so many variations. Sometimes I do it all from scratch, sometimes I cheat and use jarred caramel ice cream topping and warmed up marshmallow creme. Sometimes I use roasted salted pepitas or sunflower seeds. Mini cinnamon chips are great in place of the chocolate chips.
Just a little tip: if the variety of apple you are using is prone to browning with air exposure, give them a quick soak in lemon lime soda before assembling the platter. I give them a quick pat down with a paper towel after I pull them out of the soda. You can also use lemon juice, but my family wasn't crazy about the taste. Or you can just eat them real fast :)
I hope that you have enjoyed AppleWeek as much as I have. Thank you so much to Carlee from Cooking with Carlee for hosting, and to all the other AppleWeek bloggers for their amazing recipes.
