For a polished look, use an apple corer before slicing to ensure a clean core removal. If you're nut-free, sunflower seed butter or even cream cheese can be substituted for the peanut butter. Use different sizes of raisins for variety in the spots. Consider using chocolate chips for the spots for a sweeter treat.
