Make snack time a real healthy yet FUN treat when you turn Opal Apples into these holiday classic Reindeer Apple Slices. Covered with peanut butter and pretzel antlers, this is a snack that every kid (even the kid in YOU) will love.
Using Opal apples for these adorably festive Reindeer Apple Slices not only adds a distinctive crunchy texture with a sweet yet tangy flavor, but you also don’t get that gross browning that happens to all apples after your slice them. That’s because these apples are naturally non-browning. No more need to dip these slices in lemon juice, these apples are the best option to throw into the lunchbox or for a snack time treat for your kids.

Another reason to love Opals? Opal is known as the apple that gives back. A portion of every Opal sale goes towards youth-based non-profits, empowering youth to put their dreams into action and then serve those most in need within their community. Here at Fork & Beans, we genuinely believe in giving back so this is one apple we proudly support!
