Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Use a sharp knife to cut the apples into slices, removing the seeds and core. You can choose to keep the apple peel on for extra color and nutrition.

Break the chocolate into smaller pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl with coconut oil. Microwave in short intervals (15-20 seconds) and stir between each interval to melt chocolate. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate using a double boiler.

Insert lollipop stick or popsicle stick into the bottom of each apple slice. Make sure they are securely in place.

Dip each apple slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing it on a parchment paper-lined tray.

While the chocolate is still wet, you can sprinkle your choice of toppings on the slices. Get creative with crushed nuts, colorful sprinkles, or even drizzles of contrasting chocolate.

Place the tray of chocolate-covered apple slices in the freezer for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. This step is essential for the chocolate to harden and create that perfect crunch.
