Ingredients
Granny Smith apples
Pine nuts
Peanut butter
Strawberries
Sugar candy eyes
Directions
- Start by washing and drying the Granny Smith apple thoroughly. Cut it in half, but not all the way through. Leave a small portion connected to create the “face” shape.
- Remove the core from the apple half.
- Spread a thin layer of peanut butter on the cut side of the apple half, creating the mouth area.
- Place a row of pine nuts along the edge of the apple half, pressing them into the peanut butter. These will resemble the teeth.
- Add two sugar candy eyes above the teeth, gently pressing them into the peanut butter so they stick.
- Take a strawberry and cut off the stem end to create a flat base. Cut a small slit at the pointed end to make it look like a tongue.
- Spread a little peanut butter on the flat base of the strawberry and press it onto the apple half, just below the teeth. The strawberry will act as the tongue.
- Repeat the steps above to make more apple bites with teeth, eyes, and tongues.
- Arrange the finished apple bites on a serving platter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the peanut butter set.
- Serve your spooky Halloween apple bites and enjoy!
