Equipment
- 1 Large Serving Board
Ingredients
- 1 cup caramel sauce or dip
- ½ cup almond butter
- 6 apples (a mix of several varieties, sliced)
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- ½ cup hazelnuts (or nuts of choice)
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- ½ cup granola
- ½ sleeve plain cookies (any you like)
- ½ sleeve plain crackers (any you like)
- 1 punnet blackberries
- 1 cup dried fruit (apricots and dates or any you like)
Instructions
- Choose a board based on the size of your gathering and the amount of ingredients you intend to serve. A small board for 2-3, medium for 3-6, large for 6-8, or an extra-large board for 8+ people.
- Cut apples in half, cut out the cores then slice each half into 6 slices. Add these all to a large bowl and drizzle with plenty of lemon juice. Toss to make sure they're well coated.
- Chop half the nuts then place these in small bowls. Add the nut butter or chocolate sauce (if using) to other bowls.
- Arrange the base of the board by first placing all the bowls. One for the caramel sauce/dip and others for the nut butter, chopped nuts, and granola.
- Next start to add a few colorful apple slices near the bowls, but ensure they’re spread out along the length of the board too.
- Scatter around any other fresh or dried fruit you’re using, as well as whole nuts, chocolate and cookies or crackers.
- Finish by filling in any gaps you can see then adding a few small seasonal decorations to the board before moving it to the table for serving.

Notes
Please Note: The nutritional information for each serving is a guide only and will depend on the ingredients on the board. These ingredients are suggestions, and you can add or replace any you like. The volumes given in this recipe are suggested amounts for a dessert board that is served at the end of a meal. If it will be served as a stand-alone snack board consider increasing the volume being served.
The top thing to keep in mind as you pull this board together is to constantly mix colours, textures and flavours as you work your way around. This will keep it beautiful, interesting and makes it easy for your guests to create their perfect little caramel apple bite every time they dig in.
Remember: Drizzle the apple slices with a little bit of lemon juice or rinse them thoroughly under cold water once they’re cut to stop them browning too quickly. They should be one of the last ingredients you prepare before starting to build the board.
