Healthy 5-Ingredient Caramel Apple Dessert Recipe (Low-Calorie & Quick)

Healthy 5-Ingredient Caramel Apple Dessert Recipe

The past few nights for my "midnight snack" I have been making this healthy apple dessert. The best thing about this quick healthy snack is that it only uses 5 ingredients, the yogurt is plain so you can taste every other ingredient, and it's only about 180 calories for the entire bowl. It’s one of those easy wins you’ll end up craving every night!

Whether it’s post-workout, a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, or a late-night craving fix, this quick treat fits perfectly.

• Total prep time: 5–10 minutes
• Family friendly: Yes, this recipe is made with family-friendly ingredients
• Difficulty level: Easy
• Serving size: 1
• Serving suggestions: Top with sugar-free Cool Whip, granola, almonds, or walnuts, or pair with a coffee or green tea. You can also add an extra drizzle of caramel or chocolate syrup.

For some reason, this recipe reminds me of the marshmallow and fruit Jell-O recipe I used to eat when I was little. I don't know why—maybe because of the texture—but it tastes very similar.

The original recipe was posted in the CleanFoodCrush Clean Eating Challenge Facebook Group.

Feel free to make other adjustments such as replacing walnuts with almonds or adding a sugar-free topping like chocolate or strawberry syrup instead of caramel.

This low-calorie caramel apple snack is the perfect "midnight" snack, pre- or post-workout snack, or even a light, healthy breakfast.

If you like cinnamon, sugar, caramel, and a crunch with the walnuts, this is the perfect recipe for you. If you make this recipe, I would love to hear your feedback—please comment, review, or rate it below!
