Living out on the farm it is sometimes hard to keep enough fruit in the house to keep her satisfied. When our fruit trees are in season she just walks outside, sits in the tree and helps herself.
We live an hour from the nearest Fruit and Veg shop and as I only go shopping once a week keeping the fruit bowl stocked is almost impossible. I keep a handy supply of tinned fruit in the pantry to tide us over during the shortfall.
One of my daughters favourite snacks is Apple Donuts.
I core an apple, cut the apple into slices (about 1cm thick) and spread the slices with cream cheese. To make them an extra special snack I sprinkle them with 100's & 1000's.
And voila, Apple Donuts.
Enjoy

What a cool idea. I'm going to try these for my granddaughter.
ReplyDeleteThank you. They are delicious and moderately healthy.
DeleteYum, these look good. I think I would love them too! My daughter loves her apples topped with peanut butter.
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds good too. My daughter loves celery with peanut butter.
DeleteGreat idea! Jamie doesn't like cream cheese so I'm going to try them with spreadable Mersey cheddar. I think he'll love them. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rhonda, I think any spreadable cheese would work nice.
DeleteWow Ann, I love the photo of the silos in your header. How fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThank you Nanna Chel, I get to admire them most mornings. They look especially nice at sunset.
DeleteI love your header photo, Ann. Really stunning! I like simple snack ideas like these that are quick to make and easy to eat. Thanks for sharing the idea. Meg:)
ReplyDeleteHi Meg, thank you for your comments, I love going on my morning walk and taking photos of what is to us "our ordinary farm". I hope you enjoy these snacks.
DeleteHi! Nice to meet you and check out your blog! What a fun idea!

Hi Emma, nice to meet you too. Thank you for stopping by, I hope you enjoy the snacks.
DeleteWhat a great idea. I might miss the 100s and 1000s but my grandie will love these.
ReplyDeleteHi Jane, you could also try crushed nuts (if there are no allergies). Enjoy.
DeleteI saw sprinkles and my inner child had to investigate! What a cute snack idea. You've made apples fun!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments, sprinkles brighten up lots of foods. Remember fairy bread, it would be plain old bread and butter without sprinkles.
DeleteMy grandies would love those. I make monkey tails for mine. Over ripe bananas, dipped in chocolate sauce and sprinkled with chopped nuts. They make mess though! I came from Rhonda's, Elaine from New Mexico US.

ReplyDeleteWow, Hi Elaine, they sound fantastic, chocolate and bananas, another two of my daughters favourite foods. Thank you for visiting my blog all the way from New Mexico US.
DeleteDear Ann, I've never seen such kind of donuts before but I love them already. I think these are a wonderful treat for children and much better than many other store-bought sweets. Have a lovely Sunday in your neck of the wood. Best wishes for you and your blog from Tina (Germany)
