Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Core the apple, then slice it crosswise into thin rings, about 1/8-inch thick.

  2. Step 2

    Spread peanut butter on one apple ring, then sprinkle granola on top and press another apple ring on it to form a sandwich.

  3. Step 3

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 60 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Place the apple sandwich in the pan and cook until the underside is golden and the peanut butter softens, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden, another 90 seconds, then remove to a plate.

  6. Step 6

    Let it cool for 1 minute before eating so the peanut butter sets slightly.

Tools you’ll need
