Who says you can’t have Halloween fun without candy? These fun treats are festive AND delicious while adding to the Halloween decorations at your party or trunk-or-treat! Included are instructions for two of my favorites!
Spook-A-Licious Banana Ghosts
Time to Prepare: 5 minutes // Servings: 2
Ingredients
1 banana, sliced in half (down the length of banana)
2 popsicle sticks or wooden skewers
1/4 cup low-fat vanilla Greek yogurt (flavored yogurt can be replaced with Lemon) (**Greek yogurt will stick to banana better than regular yogurt**)
4 mini chocolate chips
¼ cup Raw Coconut, finely shredded *(optional)
Directions
Carefully insert the banana onto the skewer.
Spread the yogurt over the bananas.
*If using coconut, sprinkle the coconut covering the yogurt banana
Gently place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment or waxed paper.
Create two eyes on each ghost with two mini chocolate chips
Freeze until firm and serve.
Serving Size: 2 banana “ghosts”
