Gather your ingredients

  • Swaps for lemon juice

    Instead of lemon juice

    • Lime juice: The same amount. A different, more floral aroma; works almost everywhere.
    • Bottled lemon juice: The same amount. More sour and flatter; fine in cooking and baking, less bright in dressings and drinks.
    • White wine vinegar or white vinegar: Half as much. Sharper, with no citrus aroma.

  • Swaps for peanut butter

    Instead of peanut butter

    • Sunflower seed butter: The same amount. Earthier and a little sweeter.
    • Almond or cashew butter: The same amount. Milder and less salty (add a pinch of salt).
    • Soy nut butter: The same amount. Close in taste and texture; contains soy.

  • Swaps for honey

    Instead of honey

    • Maple syrup: The same amount. Thinner, with a maple flavor; a little less sweet.
    • Agave syrup: A little less (about ¾ the amount). Sweeter and very neutral; thinner.
    • Light corn syrup or golden syrup: The same amount. Less sweet and neutral (golden syrup tastes buttery).

    More for honey

    Don't give honey, even baked into food, to babies under 1 year old.

  • Swaps for mini chocolate chips

    Instead of chocolate and chocolate chips

    • Semisweet and bittersweet: The same amount, either way. Bittersweet is less sweet and more intense; semisweet is milder and sweeter.
    • Chopped bar chocolate for chips: The same weight (a 12 oz bag of chips is about 2 cups). Melty puddles and streaks instead of neat chips.
    • Chips for bar chocolate when melting: The same weight. Chips melt thicker and less smoothly, so ganache and glazes are a bit stiffer.

    All 4 swaps for chocolate and chocolate chips

  • Swaps for ground cinnamon

    Instead of cinnamon

    • Pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice: The same amount. Mostly cinnamon, with ginger, nutmeg and allspice or cloves: a little spicier.
    • Ground allspice or nutmeg: About ¼ the amount. Much stronger and different, but warm in the same way.

Step 1 of 7

Stir the lemon juice into the cold water in a bowl.

Step 2 of 7

Core the apples and cut them into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 3 of 7

Dip the slices in the lemon water and pat them dry, so they don't turn brown.

Step 4 of 7

Fan the apple slices out on a large plate, overlapping them like nacho chips.

Step 5 of 7

Warm the peanut butter in a small bowl in the microwave until it drizzles easily, about 20 seconds.

Step 6 of 7

Drizzle the peanut butter and honey over the apples with a spoon.

Step 7 of 7

Sprinkle with granola, chocolate chips and a pinch of cinnamon, if using. Serve right away.

All done

Enjoy!
