Looking for a Halloween snack that isn’t all candy? These apple teeth are a little creepy, a lot silly and totally healthy. Apple wedges become goofy mouths with slivered almond teeth. Kids think they’re hilarious, and they’re a great balance to all the sweets on the party table.

Tips

• Use red apples for the most mouth-like look.
• Prevent browning with a quick dip in lemon or orange juice.
• Add peanut butter “gums” to help the teeth stay put (or sunflower butter for nut-free).
• Nut-free teeth: use mini marshmallows or sunflower seeds.
