These Monster Mouths are a fun spin on the usual apple with peanut butter pairing. They’re perfect for kids, but adults will love them too (obviously)! Deliciously creepy, you can feel free to swap out the peanut butter for any other nut butter of choice, and use broken pretzel sticks or pomegranate seeds to create rickety scary teeth. Just make sure to bite them… before they bite you, LOL.

  • Prep time
  • Total Time
This recipe makes 4 mouths
Ingredients:
  • • 1 apple, any variety
  • • 3 to 6 tablespoons peanut butter
  • • 3 tablespoons slivered almonds
Preparation:

Cut the apple into 8 slices: 4 slices should be medium-large (these will serve as the bottom of the mouths) and the remaining 4 slices should be slightly smaller/thinner (these will serve as the mouth tops).

Spread peanut butter on the inside of each slice. Then, place the smaller slices on top of the larger slices (peanut butter facing inward and touching). Create rickety teeth, by placing the slithered almonds (or other ingredient of choice) between the two slices, gently pressing down into the bigger apple slice to help anchor them.
