Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (or substitute with almond butter for a nut-free option)

2 tablespoons honey (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup granola (for a delightful topping)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for an extra sweet touch)

Additional dippers: pretzel sticks, animal crackers, or sliced pears

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples:

    - Begin by washing the apples thoroughly. Cut them into wedges, ensuring that the cores are removed. To maintain their vibrant color and prevent browning, consider tossing the apple slices in a splash of lemon juice—this is optional but highly recommended.

      Make the Sweet Dip:

        - In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, creamy peanut butter, honey, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract.

          - Use a whisk to blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Taste the dip and add more honey if you prefer a sweeter flavor.

            Assemble the Snack Tray:

              - On a large platter or decorative snack tray, arrange the apple wedges in a circular formation or any visually appealing pattern.

                - In the center of the tray, place the sweet dip using a small bowl or ramekin, creating a focal point for your display.

                  - For an enticing presentation, sprinkle granola and mini chocolate chips over the dip, enhancing both texture and flavor.

                    Add Extra Dippers:

                      - To further elevate the snack tray, fill in any empty spaces with an assortment of pretzel sticks, animal crackers, or freshly sliced pears. These options offer delightful pairing choices that complement the sweet dip beautifully.
