Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by thoroughly washing the celery stalks under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
- Trim the ends of the celery stalks using a sharp knife. It's usually best to cut off both the root end and the leafy top.
- Cut each celery stalk into shorter pieces, roughly 3 to 4 inches long. This length is ideal for handling and eating as a snack.
- Measure out 2 tablespoons of almond butter. Stir the almond butter well if it has separated.
- Use a small knife or a spoon to spread a generous layer of almond butter into the groove of each celery stick piece. Ensure an even distribution.
- Arrange the almond butter-filled celery sticks on a plate or serving dish. You can serve them immediately or refrigerate for a chilled snack later.
- For an extra touch, you can sprinkle raisins, dried cranberries, or a few granola bits on top of the almond butter. This adds a bit of sweetness and texture.
- Your Almond Butter Celery Sticks are now ready to enjoy! This snack is nutritious, easy to make, and perfect for any time of the day.
Tips:
- Select Fresh Celery: Choose fresh, crisp celery stalks for the best taste and texture. Look for stalks that are firm and vibrant green with no signs of wilting.
- Use High-Quality Almond Butter: Opt for a natural almond butter with no added sugar or oils for a healthier option. Stir well before using if the oil has separated.
- Customize Your Toppings: For added flavor and nutrition, consider sprinkling raisins, dried cranberries, or a dash of cinnamon on the almond butter.
- Prep in Advance: Prepare the celery sticks in advance and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a quick grab-and-go snack.
- Portion Control: Measure out the almond butter to ensure you are adhering to serving sizes and maintaining a balanced intake of nutrients.
