Chef's Notes

Substitutions
For the apple, use any variety you like. Note that Granny Smith apples will provide more tartness than others.

Substitute almond butter, cashew butter, or pecan butter for peanut butter.

Nut-free
Use sunflower seed butter or tahini in place of peanut butter.

Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Add more milk or water as needed to reach desired consistency.
