1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted

  • Top w/one can apple pie filling.
  • Then combine powdered sugar, cinnamon and the remaining peanut butter until crumbly and sprinkle half over pie filling.

Tips:

  • Use ripe apples: Riper apples will be sweeter and have a softer texture, which will make them easier to mash and blend.
  • Don't overcook the apples: Overcooked apples will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender.
  • Use a good quality peanut butter: The peanut butter is the star of this dessert, so make sure you use a brand that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the apple mixture, or you can use a different type of nut butter, such as almond butter or cashew butter.
  • Make sure the dessert is chilled before serving: This will help it to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Peanut Butter Apple Dessert is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up ripe apples, and it is also a good source of fiber and protein. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
