Healthy Halloween Snack Recipe

I know it can be difficult to find healthy Halloween snack recipes. This snack is not only a fun activity for you and your kids, but also a great pre or post treat or treat healthy Halloween snack. It can be tough to get your kids to fill their tummies with anything healthy when candy or other Halloween actives are on the brain! This snack is not so involved that you couldn’t do this on Halloween night together, you probably have all the ingredients you need at home now.

Healthy-Halloween-snacks

This recipe is more of a Halloween craft that you happen to be able to eat! It would make a super fun surprise in a lunch box as well! If you do the cutting, your kids can help with the fillings. Get creative with fillings! I used different combinations toppings.

Here are some healthy topping ideas:

  • Creamy peanut butter or other nut butters
  • Strawberry jam… for BLOOD!
  • Banana slices
  • Mini chocolate chips – my favorite brand is Enjoy Life they are dairy free, soy free, gluten free, nut free and more!
  • Honey
  • Salt
  • Caramel
  • Chocolate spreads like this awesome one from Nutiva
  • Coconut flakes
  • Raisins, craisins

Surprise the kid, or kid at heart in your life with this fun, simple festive treat! It's healthy too!

Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 large apple
  • Various toppings from the list above

Instructions

  1. Cut off the bottom of the apple to it sits flat
  2. Make disc like slices on the apple until you get near the core.
  3. Divide your slices in two piles. One you will cut a face into, and one you will not.
  4. Get creative, and cut a few faces into the apples slices.
  5. To make the sandwich- take one pumpkin without a face and spread on your toppings and then add the slice with a face. Done!
  6. I store the leftover apple slices in the fridge for a snack later or to flavor some kombucha or even to put into a smoothie. Nothing goes to waste!

PS- I get a lot of my dry goods and healthy mayo at Thrive Market, which I have a membership to. It’s kind of like amazon prime for healthy foods. I shop there because I cannot seem to find better prices for similar goods! If you are interested in trying it out, they have a trial membership you can check out here!
