Notes

  • The equipment section above includes affiliate links to things I use often in my kitchen and recommend.
  • To toast the almonds: add the almonds to a dry, medium skillet over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally and remove as soon as they’re lightly browned and fragrant (they burn fast!). 
  • You can peel the apple, but I left the skin on for this recipe. 
  • To slice the brussels, use a very sharp knife or a mandoline.
