Frequently Asked Questions
Greek yogurt is often lower in sugar than standard yogurt. It is also much higher in protein, and can be purchased in lower fat percentages if desired. Generally, Greek yogurt will help you stay fuller for longer since it has more protein.
Peanut butter goes with many foods! Yogurt, apples, bananas, and crackers are all great options for serving with peanut butter for a filling snack or mini meal. It's particularly filling when paired with yogurt, since the two forms of protein can help with satiety.
Create a lemon juice and water bath by combining 1 cup of cold water with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Add your apple slices, and allow them to soak for 5 minutes.

Notes
Type of Peanut Butter: This recipe has only been tested with regular commercial peanut butter. It has not been tested with natural peanut butter, and I don't think the results would be the same at all. If you wanted to try natural peanut butter, be sure to mix it thoroughly and add some additional honey for sweetness.
Honey: You may use standard honey, or raw honey if desired.
Alternative sweeteners: If you don't have honey on hand, you can use maple syrup in its place. The consistency will be a bit runny, but it should still work wonderfully.

Could Almond or Sunbutter be used to replace peanut butter with equally tasty results
Dolly says
Hi Mareli! I haven't tested it with almond or sunbutter, but I'm pretty sure sunbutter would work since it's the same consistency as conventional peanut butter. Almond butter may be a bit trickier because it's not as smooth, but I think with some careful blending it could be quite lovely (although the texture may be a little grainy).
