Ingredients
  

2 large natural apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

1 cup crushed graham crackers (for coating)

Wooden popsicle sticks or skewers

Melted chocolate (for drizzling, optional)

Instructions
 

Preparation of Apples:

    - Wash and core the apples. Cut each apple into wedges, ensuring they are about 1-inch thick. If desired, you can choose to slice the apples into rounds as well.

      Make the Yogurt Mix:

        - In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Stir well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

          Coat the Apple Wedges:

            - Dip each apple wedge into the yogurt mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Let the excess yogurt drip off and place them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

              Add the Crunch:

                - After dipping the apple wedges in the yogurt, roll each coated wedge in the crushed graham crackers to give them a delicious crunchy exterior.

                  Insert Sticks:

                    - Insert a wooden popsicle stick or skewer into each apple wedge, making sure it goes in far enough to hold the wedge securely.

                      Freeze:

                        - Place the baking sheet with the coated apple wedges into the freezer. Allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.

                          Serving Suggestion:

                            - Once frozen, remove the apple cinnamon sticks from the freezer. Drizzle with melted chocolate for an extra touch of decadence if desired. Serve immediately, or keep them in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to enjoy!
