Directions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Add shelled pistachios, coconut flakes, chia seeds and cinnamon to a food processor and blend until roughly chopped. Pour onto a plate to form an even layer.
  3. Slice each apple into 8 wedges, discarding the seeds and core.
  4. Heat a small saucepan over low. Add dark chocolate and coconut oil.
