What greater way to celebrate Halloween than with tasty and healthy snacks? This is a fun recipe to do with your child that's interactive and yummy!

Monster Apple Bites

Ingredients

  1. 2 Apples - any color of your choice! (We chose green apples).
  2. 1/4 cup of nut butter - any butter of your choice if your child is allergic to nuts! (We chose peanut butter).
  3. 1/4 cup of seeds - any seed of your choice that look like teeth! (We chose pumpkin seeds, but you can also use sunflower seeds).
  4. 2-3 strawberries
  5. Handful of sugar googly eyes - these are available for purchase from the bakery aisle

Steps

  1. Quarter each apple to create the monster. Cut the middle out of the slice to create a mouth - doesn't need to be perfect because you'll be filling in the gap with your nut butter!
  2. Coat the inside of the "mouth" with the nut butter.
  3. Place seeds along the top of the "mouth" to make teeth.
  4. Place 1 sliced strawberry inside of the "mouth" to create a tongue.
  5. Dab each googly eye with a bit of nut butter to stick the eyes to the apple slice.
  6. Ta-da! Monster apples!

Hope this brings your child happy smiles on Halloween!
