Instructions:

1. Prepare the Apple:
- Wash the apple thoroughly under running water.
- Peel the apple if desired (optional).
- Core the apple and slice it into bite-sized pieces or rings, depending on your preference.
2. Caramelize the Apple:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. No need for any oil or butter; the natural sugars in the apple will caramelize beautifully on their own.
- Once the skillet is hot, add the apple slices.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the apples are golden brown and tender. The edges should be slightly caramelized.
3. Cool the Apples:
- Remove the caramelized apple slices from the skillet and place them on a plate. Allow them to cool for a few minutes until they are warm to the touch, but not hot.
4. Add Peanut Butter:
- Once the apple slices have cooled slightly, use a small spoon to add a dollop of peanut butter on top of each slice. You can also drizzle the peanut butter if it’s runny enough.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
- Arrange the caramelized apple peanut butter bites on a serving platter.
- Serve immediately, and enjoy your delicious, easy-to-make snack!

Tips:

- Choose a crisp and firm apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture after caramelizing.

- If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can slightly warm up the peanut butter before drizzling it over the apple bites.

- Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for an extra layer of flavor.

- To caramelize the apples, you can cook them in a non-stick pan over medium heat with a teaspoon of butter and a pinch of brown sugar until golden brown.

- Serve the bites immediately for the best texture and flavor, as the apples can lose their crispness over time.
