Description
Mini Orange Pumpkins and Ghost Bananas have become a family favorite, especially around Halloween. The first time I made them, I wasn’t sure how my family would react—after all, they’re a bit quirky in presentation. But when I brought the tray to the table, my kids’ eyes lit up like it was Christmas morning. These adorable, spooky snacks quickly disappeared. Even my picky eater, who normally avoids anything that resembles fruit, devoured the Ghost Bananas in seconds. They’re perfect for making with little ones, who can easily help in the assembly process. Plus, they offer a refreshing and fun way to enjoy healthier treats during the holiday season. Trust me, these cute and delicious bites are sure to be a hit with both kids and adults alike!
