# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes almost no effort but delivers that perfect salty-sweet-crunchy trifecta that stops mindless snacking.
  • You can prep a batch in minutes and keep them ready in the fridge for whenever hunger strikes.
02 -
  • If your peanut butter is too thick or cold, it will tear the celery when you spread it, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes first.
  • Pat the celery completely dry after washing or moisture will make the peanut butter slip right off within minutes.
03 -
  • Use the inner, lighter celery stalks for the mildest flavor and the most tender crunch, save the darker outer stalks for soups.
  • If you're making these for a crowd, set up a little topping bar with bowls of raisins, nuts, seeds, and even granola so guests can build their own.
