Healthy Recipes Ingredient Dairy Cheese Cheddar-Apple Cracker Bites 5.0 (1) 1 Review This easy recipe comes together in just 5 minutes, making it a quick snack or appetizer. The sweetness of the Fuji balances well with the cheddar, but you can use another variety of apple if you prefer. This recipe calls for 3 thin apple slices per cracker, but feel free to use just one if you’re craving a more cheesy bite.
