Fun Apple Snacking for Toddlers and Older Babies

Sometimes we can get overzealous with acquiring kitchen tools and gadgets. I admit to having many kitchen items that I used once and have forgotten about.  But the Apple Peeler….. Oh the wonderful apple peeler!

Behold the old-fashioned and humble apple peeler/core-er tool.  This fabulous tool makes quick work of peeling and slicing apples and is a lot of fun for kids to use.  When you have this tool, you can easily make uniform apple rings for a variety of uses such as:

  • pies
  • apple crisp
  • finger foods
  • fun snack foods
  • drying and dehydrating
  • upside-down apple cakes
  • use the rings in apple & cheddar quesadillas
  • roast the slices with other fruits and veggies
  • fry in a pat of butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon
  • pull ’em apart like a spring – playing with food is a good, healthy thing to do

This little tool is really a wonderful addition to your culinary tool chest, especially if you enjoy cooking with apples and eating apples. When I take this out, I feel happy!
