Notes
Honey can be substituted for maple syrup if preferred.
Use Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala apples for the sweetest flavor.
Toast the walnuts for extra crunch and a richer taste.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For the best texture, add the walnuts just before serving if meal prepping.
