Peanut Butter Apple Wraps

If your kids enjoy peanut butter and apples for snacks, this delicious wrap is a healthy 5-minute lunch to pack in the lunchbox- let me show you how!

Peanut Butter Wraps with Apples & Carrots

The peanut butter and apple combo is hard to beat and even better on a delicious tortilla. The best part? You get to sneak some veggies into this healthy school lunch wrap! 

The carrots add a nice crunch and a little extra sweetness, and the flax is a healthy addition! An optional “cherry on top” would be some grain-free vanilla granola– it adds another level of crunch and flavor. 

You can use a nut-free butter alternative if your child goes to a nut-free school. I have tested several, and soy butter is the winner for being almost identical to peanut butter in taste and texture. 

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to roll up one of these wraps: 

• Tortillas: flour tortillas work best since they’re pliable. 
• Peanut butter: use creamy or crunchy. 
• Chopped apple: any variety of apples works here! 
• Carrot: shredded is the only way to go. 
• Flaxseed: optional but adds a DELICIOUS texture and healthy fats.
