So here’s how to get in on this flavourful fun!

 Before starting, pre-heat your oven to 375!

 Step 1- Pick out your favourite Red Prince® Apple and wash it! Grab your peanut butter (smooth or crunchy will work great!) and measure the amount you would like to use. I used roughly 3tbs when baking mine!

 Step 2- CAREFULLY core the Red Prince® making sure to not go straight through the bottom of the apple!
