Slice apples into fourths and carve out a small divot for the “mouth” and place it on a serving platter.
Add in nut butter and marshmallows for the teeth and a strawberry slice for the tongue.
Finally, add on the eyes (you can attach them with a bit of nut butter).
Orange Pumpkins (Mandarin Jack o' Lanterns)
Peel mandarin oranges.
Add a small pretzel "stem" to the middle of each orange.
Spooky Banana Monsters
Peel the bananas and cut them in half.
Stick on monster eyes, aka candy eyes.

Notes
Wash and dry all of the fruit before cutting.
Make sure you use fresh, ripe fruit for the best taste.
Make sure to set spooky treats on the platter just before serving.
To avoid your banana and apple turning brown once you slice, brush them with pineapple juice or apple juice, or squeeze lemon juice over them. But note that this will add extra flavors that you can taste. Or, if possible, wait to make the apple and the banana ghosts just before serving.
Reserve extra fruit to replenish the Halloween fruit platter halfway during the day or evening.
Add in other adorable Halloween candy that you have on hand. We love candy corn and orange, green and purple M&Ms.
Use Halloween colored fresh fruit. Other Halloween fruit ideas include green fruit like green grapes and kiwi, purple fruit like grapes and blackberries, and orange ones like oranges, etc. And red fruit like strawberries.
Instead of candy eyes, use mini chocolate chips, sunflower seeds, other nuts, or colored frosting.
Serve with a delicious fruit dip.
Add in extra pretzels or spooky cookies.
Storage - for best results, use this fruit tray immediately.
There is just 1 WW Blue Plan SmartPoint in a serving of this.
