Ingredients
  

For the Apple Filling:

2 medium apples (choose between Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and diced

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

For the Yogurt Sandwiches:

2 cups Greek yogurt (your choice of plain or flavored)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup crunchy granola (for added texture)

12 graham crackers (or your choice of cookies)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apple Filling:

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, fresh lemon juice, ground cinnamon, light brown sugar, and all-purpose flour. Gently toss the ingredients together until the apples are thoroughly coated. Allow the mixture to sit for approximately 10 minutes. This resting time helps the flavors meld and allows the apples to release some of their natural juices.

      Cook the Apples:

        Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the apple mixture to the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples become tender and begin to caramelize slightly. Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat and set aside to cool completely.

          Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

            In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and pure vanilla extract. Mix well until the ingredients are smooth and fully incorporated. Taste the yogurt mixture and adjust the sweetness to your liking, if necessary.

              Assemble the Sandwiches:

                Take one graham cracker and spread approximately 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture evenly on top. Layer a spoonful of the cooled apple filling over the yogurt, and then sprinkle a generous amount of granola for added crunch. Top with another graham cracker to form a complete sandwich.

                  Freeze:

                    Arrange the assembled yogurt sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place them in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 2-4 hours, or until they are completely set.

                      Serve:

                        Once frozen, you can cut the sandwiches in half if desired for easier handling. Serve immediately and relish the delightful contrast of refreshing frozen yogurt melded with the warm, cozy flavors of apple pie!
