Ingredients
- Apple, medium 1 piece
- Peanut butter 1 tablespoon
Method
-
Wash the apple.
Rinse the apple thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or residues. Pat dry with a clean towel.
Tip: Use a fruit brush to gently scrub the skin if you have one. -
Slice the apple.
Place the apple on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the apple into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick. Remove the core by cutting around it or by using an apple corer before slicing.
Tip: Be sure to cut away from your fingers and keep the knife steady for safety. -
Spread peanut butter on apple slices.
Take one tablespoon of peanut butter and use a butter knife or spoon to spread a thin layer evenly on each apple slice. You can also dip the apple slices into the peanut butter if preferred.
Tip: If the peanut butter is too thick, warm it slightly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften it for easier spreading.
Pro tips
- Choose fresh, crisp apples for the best texture and flavor.
- To prevent apple slices from browning, you can lightly brush them with lemon juice before adding peanut butter.
