Looking for a spooky, kid-friendly treat that’s actually healthy? These Halloween Monster Mouths are the perfect mix of creepy and cute — made with just a few simple ingredients you probably already have at home. They’re a fun addition to Halloween parties, school snacks, or even a themed movie night!
🧛♀️ What You’ll Need

🪞How to Make Halloween Monster Mouths
- Slice the apples – Cut your apple into wedges. You’ll need two slices per mouth.
- Add the peanut butter – Spread a layer of peanut butter on one side of each apple slice.
- Make the teeth – Place mini marshmallows along the edge of one apple slice so they stick into the peanut butter.
- Assemble the mouth – Press a second apple slice (peanut butter side down) on top to sandwich the marshmallows.
- Optional extras – Add a strawberry “tongue” or a slivered almond “fang” for extra spook factor!
That’s it! In just a few minutes, you’ve got a plate full of adorable (and slightly terrifying) monster mouths that your little ghouls will love.
