INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup Medjool Dates, pitted (about 8-10)
- 2 Tbsp Full-Fat canned Coconut Milk
- ¼ tsp Sea Salt
- ½ tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 2-3 apples- (sweet kind, I used fuji)
- 1 scoop Whey Protein Pops
DIRECTIONS:
- Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth.
- You may need to occasionally scrape down the sides.
- Stick a popsicle stick about 2 inches deep into the top of each apple. Get a cookie sheet and lay either freezer or wax paper down on the bottom of the cookie sheet.
- Spread caramel evenly around the outside of your apple.
- Sprinkle Whey Pops on top of caramel.
- Set caramel apples on cookie sheet so that the popsicle stick is straight in the air.
*Extra caramel can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
