1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup raisins or chopped nuts (optional)

Notes
Use sweet apples like Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala for the best flavor.
Add chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber.
Make them vegan by using a flax egg and maple syrup instead of honey.
Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
