Apple Pin Wheels are another great snack for after school or for lunch on a fall day that incorporates fruit!
1 medium Apple
4 oz. Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
1 tsp. cinnamon
Honey
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Cut the pita in half separating the top from the bottom so that you have two large circles. In a separate bowl mix the cheese and cinnamon together; set aside. Wash, core and thinly slice the apple into wedges.
Take the two pita circles and lay them flat (smooth side down) onto a non stick baking sheet. Drizzle a very small amount of honey onto the bottom. Evenly sprinkle the cheese and cinnamon mixture over the honey and then add the apple slices around the pita in the direction of a pin wheel. Bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the pita is crunchy.
Note: Even if you do most of the prep work, children feel like they are very much a part of the process by doing the final layering.
Pictures coming soon...
