Ingredients

4 stalks celery 4 stalks celery
0.5 cup creamy peanut butter 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
0.25 tsp salt 0.25 tsp salt
1 tbsp chopped peanuts or gluten-free granola (optional) 1 tbsp chopped peanuts or gluten-free granola (optional)

Instructions

1
Wash and trim the celery stalks, then cut them into manageable 3-4 inch pieces. Pat the celery dry with paper towels to ensure the peanut butter adheres well. This preparation should take about 5 minutes.
2
In a small bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and salt. Stir vigorously with a spoon until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated, creating a creamy, spreadable filling. This mixing process will take approximately 2-3 minutes.
3
Carefully spoon the peanut butter mixture into the hollowed-out sections of each celery piece. Ensure the filling is packed in evenly, creating a generous layer that reaches the edges of the celery. This assembly step should take about 5-7 minutes.
4
If using, sprinkle the chopped peanuts or gluten-free granola over the peanut butter filling for added texture and flavor. Press them gently into the filling so they stick. This garnish step takes about 1-2 minutes.
5
Arrange the stuffed celery on a serving platter and serve immediately for the best crunchy texture. These can also be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 hours before serving, though the celery may soften slightly.

Tips & Notes

Softened butter should hold a fingerprint but not be greasy — if it melts on touch, it's too warm for creaming.
Warm honey (set the jar in hot water for a few minutes) makes it easier to measure and pour.
Refrigerate maple syrup after opening and use within a year.
