- Substitute peanut butter with almond or cashew butter if preferred or for allergy considerations.
- For a vegan version, ensure the granola and mini chocolate chips are dairy-free.
- To prevent the apple slices from browning, toss them lightly in lemon juice before assembling.
- This dish requires no cooking and can be prepared in under 10 minutes, making it perfect for a quick snack or dessert.
