How do I prepare the apples before baking them?

Slice apples into wedges, coat a skillet with melted coconut oil, place apples in the skillet, drizzle with any remaining oil, and sprinkle generously with cinnamon.

What is the recommended baking time for the apples in the oven?

Bake the cinnamon-coated apple slices in a preheated oven at 350 degreesF for 30-35 minutes, or until they are soft and tender.

How do I make the chocolate sauce for these apple nachos?

To prepare the chocolate sauce, mix cacao powder with coconut oil and a liquid sweetener like agave or maple syrup, then microwave briefly to ensure a smooth, pourable consistency.

Can these apple nachos be cooked on a grill or over a campfire instead of in the oven?

Yes, for a grill or campfire, place the seasoned apple slices in a tightly closed foil packet and cook for 8-10 minutes on the grate, hot charcoals, or over a small fire until the apples are soft.

What toppings are suggested for these oven-baked apple nachos?

The recipe suggests topping with your favorite nut butter, agave or maple syrup, and the homemade chocolate sauce. You can also set up an apple nacho bar for guests to customize their own.
