Healthy Halloween Board

Here, you’ll find something a little different to balance out the candy during this time of the year. Give these easy peasy fun-to-make Halloween treats. Here are a few cute snacks that are very easy to make.

1. Strawberry Peanut Butter Apple Monsters

Ingredients for Strawberry Apple Monsters

  • Candy Eyes
  • Red or Green Apples
  • Peanut Butter
  • Strawberries
  • Sunflower Seeds

How to Make These Yummy Apple Monsters:

Cut apples in half. Cut a curved wedge in the lower middle area of the apples on the side where the peel is. This is where you will make the mouth of the apple monster. Afterwards, spread peanut butter inside the mouth of the apple. When you are satisfied with your peanut butter spread, line the top of the inside of the mouth with sunflower seeds for the teeth.

Slice strawberries and place one slice onto the lower mouth for the tongue. Finish by placing the candy eyes onto the apple monster above the mouth with peanut butter. There you have it! Your Strawberry Peanut Butter Apple Monsters are now complete.

2. Boo-Nanas

Ingredients for Boo-Nanas:

  • Bananas
  • Chocolate Chips
  • Candy Eyes

How to Make Yummy Boo-Nanas:

Peel and cut each banana in half. Use candy eyes for the eyes (in the photo I used non-edible eyes because I wanted the items with eyes to look different from each other). You will use a chocolate chip for the mouth.

3. Grill Cheesed Bat

Ingredients for Grill Cheesed Bat:

  • Two slices of wheat bread
  • Cheese of your choice (I chose cheddar cheese)
  • Butter

How to Make a Yummy Grill Cheesed Bat:

Collect two slices of wheat bread. Place the cheese of your choice in between the bread slices. Afterwards, pre-heat a small pan on low heat. Place 1 teaspoon of butter in the pan and allow the butter to melt. Once the butter has melted, place the sandwich on the pan. Allow each side to toast for 2 minutes on each side, or when each side has browned. Personally, like my grilled cheese a little more toasted when most people but that’s just me.

When your grilled cheese is done, allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Once your sandwich has cooled, take a bat-shaped cookie cutter and press it down into the grilled cheese. After you’ve gotten the cookie cutter onto the grill cheese, remove the sandwich from the cookie cutter and done!

4. Spider Cracker

Ingredients for Spider Crackers:

  • Pretzel sticks
  • Candy eyes
  • Peanut butter
  • Round shaped crackers

How to Make Yummy Spider Crackers:

Spread peanut butter on a cracker and place three (3) pretzel sticks on each side. Afterwards, place another cracker on top. Finish by attaching two candy eyes on top with a little peanut butter. All done!

5. Witchy Brooms

Ingredients for Witchy Brooms:

  • Mozzarella String cheese
  • Pretzels sticks
  • Green onions

How to make Yummy Witchy Brooms:

Cut each string mozzarella cheese in half. Cut the bottom half of the cheese and brush your fingers over the bottom of the cheese to get that bristle look. Next, push a pretzel stick into the top of the mozzarella. Tie a green onion around the broom to finish it off.
