Chef's Note
For the best flavor and texture, use crisp apple varieties like Honeycrisp, Gala, or Pink Lady. To elevate this snack, try warming the almond butter for 15 seconds in the microwave before drizzling—it creates a more luxurious mouthfeel and enhances the cinnamon aroma when it hits the warm butter.
