Begin by prepping the ingredients: wash the apples and beet thoroughly.
Cook the beet until tender, about 30-40 minutes if not pre-cooked, then let it cool and dice it.
Dice the apples into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on for extra fiber.
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, diced beets, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
If desired, drizzle in honey or maple syrup, adding a bit of sweetness to your preference.
Sprinkle in cinnamon and stir until evenly distributed.
Serve the mixture in individual bowls, topped generously with coconut flakes and chopped nuts if using.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an added touch of freshness.
Enjoy chilled, or pack it in a container for a fabulous snack on the go!
