A Healthier Halloween? Try Out These Snacks

Oct 30, 2018 4:00 PM

Halloween isn’t exactly known for its healthy treats, but that doesn’t mean we all need to suffer the sugar rush and next day guilt. These healthier Halloween snacks will keep you on track and away from the 10 pm bedtimes with kids bouncing off the walls.

To make your own spooky and healthier Halloween breakfast all you need are a few cookie cutters and abracadabra you have a spooky breakfast with not much additional time spent. Edible eyes are a fast way to make a spooky monster but not essential as you can see I’ve used blueberries and raisins for eyes too (not suitable for babies) If you don’t have any Halloween cookie cutters just leave your pancakes round and add eyes to make ghosts.

A gouly ghostly pie for the wary trick or treaters.

I used Nordic Ware’s Haunted Skull Cakelet Pan and this recipe makes enough dough for the pan. You could use another skull pan or even Nordic Ware’s Mini Pumpkin Pan if you’d prefer to keep it fall themed. If you don’t have a new fancy pan in your budget, just make a regular pie. It will taste just as good and you can still make it spooky too. I used a skull cookie cutter to cut out the crust for the top and just used a straw to cut out the eyes and a knife to cut the mouth. It’s still spooky!
