Recipe FAQs

What type of apples work best for this snack?

Firm, crisp apples like Granny Smith, Fuji, or Honeycrisp are ideal as they hold their shape well and provide a refreshing crunch.

Can I make the dip nut-free?

Yes, sunflower seed butter or almond butter can be used instead of peanut butter for a nut-free or varied flavor option.

How can I prevent the apple slices from browning?

Brushing or tossing the apple slices lightly with lemon juice helps slow down oxidation and keeps them looking fresh longer.

Is it necessary to add Greek yogurt to the dip?

Greek yogurt adds creaminess and a slight tang, but you can omit it for a simpler peanut butter dip if preferred.

Are there optional spices to enhance the dip?

A pinch of ground cinnamon can be added to the dip to introduce warmth and complement the natural sweetness of the apples.

What tools are needed to prepare this snack?

A sharp knife, cutting board, mixing bowl, and spoon are sufficient for slicing apples and preparing the dip.
