Apple Almond Butter Arepa — Healthy Gluten-Free Snack
Sweet, crunchy, and filling — apple slices and almond butter on a warm arepa is the after-school snack that holds them until dinner. No cooking, no mess, and kids can do it themselves.
Ingredients
- 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
- 3 tbsp almond butter (or peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter for nut-free)
- 1 apple, thinly sliced
- Pinch of cinnamon
How to Make It
- Warm arepas in toaster or dry skillet 1–2 minutes.
- Spread almond butter over each warm arepa.
- Core and thinly slice the apple (kids can use an apple slicer tool).
- Fan apple slices over almond butter.
- Dust with a pinch of cinnamon. Serve immediately.
Why It Works
Almond butter is protein-dense and satisfying, while apple brings natural sweetness and crunch. The cinnamon makes it taste like fall baking. For schools with nut-free policies, sunflower seed butter is a perfect swap that works just as well.
