Method

  1. Core the apple with an apple corer and cut it crosswise into 6 rings about ¼ inch thick.

  2. Stir the lemon juice into 1 cup cold water, dip the rings for a few seconds so they stay white, then pat dry.

  3. Spread 3 rings with the peanut butter, sprinkle with the granola and chocolate chips, and top with the remaining rings.

  4. Pack snugly in a lunch box, or wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap so it holds together.

Tips

  • A firm, crisp apple holds its shape best; soft apples go mealy by lunchtime.
  • No corer? Cut the rings first, then cut out the core with a small round cookie cutter.
  • Swap the granola for raisins or crushed graham crackers.
