Ingredients
  

2 large apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well), peeled, cored, and diced

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon sugar or honey (optional, depending on the sweetness of the apples)

2 cups Greek yogurt (vanilla-flavored for a sweet touch)

1 cup granola or crushed graham crackers (for crunch)

1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans add great texture)

Whipped cream or additional yogurt for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: In a medium bowl, toss the diced apples with lemon juice, cinnamon, and sugar (if using). Set aside for 10 minutes to macerate; this enhances their flavor and softens them slightly.

    Mix Yogurt Base: In another bowl, spoon in the Greek yogurt and mix until it is smooth. If desired, you can sweeten it further with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.

      Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the macerated apples into the yogurt mixture until they are well distributed. Be careful not to break the apples too much.

        Layer the Mixture: In a freezer-safe dish or an ice cube tray, layer the apple-yogurt mixture evenly at the bottom. Press it down slightly to remove any air pockets.

          Add Crunch: Sprinkle a generous layer of granola or crushed graham crackers on top of the apple-yogurt mixture. Then, add the chopped nuts for extra crunch.

            Freeze: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely set.

              Serve: Once frozen, remove the dish from the freezer and let it sit for a couple of minutes. Using a sharp knife, cut into bite-sized chunks or scoop them out with a spoon. Serve with whipped cream or a dollop of additional yogurt, if desired. Enjoy your cool treat!
