Description

Ants on a Log is a classic, quick, and healthy snack featuring crisp celery sticks filled with creamy peanut butter and topped with sweet raisins, offering a delightful combination of textures and flavors that both kids and adults love.


Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 celery sticks
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup raisins


Instructions

  1. Prep: Rinse off 3 celery sticks thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any dirt. Cut each celery stick in half to create manageable snack-sized pieces.
  2. Spread peanut butter: Divide 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter evenly and spread it into the cavity of each celery stick half, filling the groove along the stalk.
  3. Add dried fruit: Press 1/4 cup of raisins evenly over the peanut butter filled celery sticks, resembling ‘ants on a log’. Serve immediately and enjoy this simple, nutritious snack!

Notes

  • For a crunchy alternative, use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
  • Substitute raisins with other dried fruits like cranberries or chopped apricots.
  • For a nut-free version, replace peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
  • This snack is best served fresh to keep celery crisp.
  • Use organic celery and natural peanut butter for healthier options.
