Calories: 115
Fat: 7 grams
Net Carb: 11 grams
Protein: 1 gram

Directions:

Core each apple while whole, then slice apple horizontally and evenly into ¼-½" slices, taking care to preserve the donut’s circular shape, with the hole in the center.

Using a few drops of natural plant-based food coloring, color the cream cheese into desired shades.

Spread one tablespoon of cream cheese onto sliced apples, decorate with sprinkles or other optional toppings, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set. Serve immediately.

For keto donuts: Consider easy, six-ingredient donuts with just two net carbs per donut from thebigmansworld.com/keto-donuts.  

For dairy-free: Consider Kite Hill Almond Cream Cheese.  

Kids Can Cook Tips: Make healthy food fun and kids will eat it.  Especially food that kids can decorate themselves!
