Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large apples (any variety)
- 12 pieces Gummy worms
- 1 cup Crunchy granola
- 1 cup Peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter as a substitute)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
Directions
Step 1
Wash the apples thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Step 2
Slice off the top of each apple and hollow out the core using a melon baller or spoon, creating a small 'cup' in the center of the apple. Be careful not to pierce through the bottom of the apple.
Step 3
Brush the inside and rim of the hollowed-out apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 4
In a small mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey (or maple syrup) until smooth.
Step 5
Fill each hollowed apple with the peanut butter mixture, spreading it evenly inside.
Step 6
Sprinkle the granola on top of the peanut butter layer to create a crunchy topping.
Step 7
Gently insert 2–3 gummy worms into each apple, placing them so they 'crawl out' of the apple for a fun, creepy effect.
Step 8
Place the finished apples on a serving plate, and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Step 9
Enjoy these spooky wormy apples as a fun snack or dessert option!
