Silly Apple Bites
It’s fairly easy to give classic Halloween candy the fruity treatment. When creating DIY treats, parents have the freedom to get creative and make spooky shapes and characters. It is much more festive than a pre-wrapped packaged candy! Use your imagination to create something unique by combining different fruits and foods together.
One of the most popular fruit-inspired Halloween treat are these silly apple bites. You can find the recipe on Fork and Beans, but essentially all that’s needed is a little nut butter, apples, sunflower seeds, and strawberries! You can either buy googly-eyes or make some homemade ones (that are also vegan).
