Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 celery sticks (about 3 inches long each)
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup raisins
Instructions
- Prepare Celery: Clean the celery sticks thoroughly under running water and cut them into pieces about 2 to 3 inches long to create manageable snack-sized portions.
- Fill Celery with Peanut Butter: To easily fill the celery sticks, place the creamy peanut butter into a resealable storage bag, snip off a small corner to create a piping bag effect, and squeeze the peanut butter into the groove of each celery piece until filled.
- Add Raisins: Place the raisins on top of the peanut butter-lined celery sticks to represent the ‘ants’ crawling on the log, completing the snack.
Notes
- You can substitute peanut butter with any nut or seed butter such as almond or sunflower butter for allergies or preference.
- For a sugar-reduced version, use unsweetened dried cranberries or chopped nuts instead of raisins.
- Ensure celery is fresh and crisp for the best texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1 day for freshness.
