peanut butter and celery stalks

The creamy peanut butter on celery is a long-time child favorite; I remember seeing variations of it years and years ago when I was a child, but it is so obvious that a snack like this is as timeless as mac and cheese. Peanut butter and celery is a great after-school or bed time snack and Kraft has put a great spin on it adding some Barnum’s animal crackers.

You will need:

  • 3 tbsp. creamy peanut butter
  • 3 celery stalks (6 inch)
  • 12 Barnum’s animal crackers
  • 1 Honey Maid honey graham cracker, crushed (about 1/4 cup crumbs)

1. Spread peanut butter evenly into hollow parts of celery stalks.

2. Stand 4 of the animal crackers in the peanut butter in each stalk.

3. Sprinkle evenly with graham crumbs to resemble dirt.

If your child has peanut allergies, substitute Philadelphia strawberry light cream cheese spread instead of peanut butter and there you have it, a healthy and fun snack.
