Method
- Place one apple on a cutting board. Use a knife to cut slices ~ ¼ inch thick parallel to the core of the apple, starting from the outside and working your way in. Stop when you begin to see seeds. Repeat with the other side of the apple, and then the other apple. Place the apple slices in a single layer on your air fryer basket.
- Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of each apple with the melted butter. Sprinkle each apple slice with a little bit of cinnamon. Air fry at 425° F for 10 minutes, until fork tender and starting to reduce in size.
- While the apples air fry, make the Maple Almond Butter. Combine the almond butter, maple sugar, sea salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl and mix until well combined.
- To serve, place the largest two apple slices on different plates. Put about a teaspoon of the Maple Almond Butter on top of the apple slices. Repeat with slightly smaller apple slices and the remaining nut butter until each apple stack has about 5-6 slices in the stack. Top each stack with the remaining Maple Almond Butter and a dusting of pumpkin pie spice. Serve hot and enjoy! This dessert would also be great with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
Notes
If your almond butter is more on the thick side, you may want to consider using all maple syrup instead, or a mixture of maple syrup and maple sugar to thin your filling out. Try mixing the almond butter with the spices first, and then do what feels right!
