Common Recipe Questions
- → How can I keep apple slices from browning?

Sunflower seed butter or almond butter can be used to replace peanut butter, catering to nut allergies or flavor preferences.
- → Can I make the dip less sweet?
Omitting honey or reducing its amount will tone down the sweetness while keeping the creamy texture intact.
