Wash the apple thoroughly under running water and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Using a sharp knife, cut the apple into thin slices, discarding the core and seeds.
Spread a thin, even layer of peanut butter on one side of each apple slice.
If desired, sprinkle granola, mini chocolate chips, or a drizzle of honey over the peanut butter for added flavor and texture.
Arrange the topped apple slices on a serving plate and serve immediately.
Optional: To prevent the apple slices from browning, lightly coat them with a small amount of lemon juice before adding the peanut butter.
