All kids love donuts, right? Well, here’s a healthier version that you can feel good about, and that your kids will love! 

These apple “donuts” are such a fun and easy snack to make with your kids. They will no doubt love spreading the frosting on their apple rings and decorating them with colorful sprinkles.

Ingredients:

• Apples
• Sprinkles
• Nutella (for chocolate frosting)
• Cream cheese and powdered sugar (for white frosting)

Step 1: Cut apples in 3/4” slices. Use an apple corer, cookie-cutter, or the bottom part of a pastry tip to remove the core and create a small circle in the middle of the slices.

Step 2: To make the white frosting, add room temperature cream cheese to a bowl. Mix in powdered sugar to taste. If you’re only using Nutella, skip this step.

Step 3: Spread the Nutella and/or white frosting on the apple rings.

Step 4: Decorate the donuts with sprinkles. Enjoy!
