For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter (SunButter) or cream cheese.

This snack is best served fresh to maintain the celery's crunch. You can prepare it a few hours in advance and store it covered in the refrigerator, but the celery may lose some of its crispness over time.
You can use other dried fruits like cranberries or chopped dates, fresh berries like blueberries, seeds like sunflower or pumpkin seeds, or even mini chocolate chips for a treat.
Sunflower seed butter is an excellent and popular nut-free alternative. You can also use soy nut butter, cream cheese, or hummus for a savory twist.
Look for celery with firm, tightly packed stalks that are bright green in color. Avoid any stalks that are limp, discolored, or have blemishes.
