3-Ingredient Halloween Apple Bites
How perfect are these healthy apple bites from Oh She Glows! These would be great for any Halloween party spread or just for a fun, healthy Halloween-themed after-school or weekend snack. You can't go wrong with apples, almonds and peanut butter! These are just too cute, aren't they?
Vegan Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls
These sweet treats are easy to make and would be a perfect addition to a Halloween party platter. Everyone loves peanut butter and chocolate! You can use almond butter too, or sunflower seed butter to make them nut-free.
Easy Vegan Chocolate
What list would be complete without a recipe for raw vegan chocolate! Making raw vegan chocolate at home is simple, all you need is coconut oil or cacao butter, cocoa or cacao powder and a sweetener such as pure maple syrup.
Depending on how much work you want to put in and how exact you want to be will determine just how incredibly delicious the final result will be. When I need a quick fix without much effort, I simply stir together approximately equal amounts of cacao powder, maple syrup and coconut oil, pour into silicone baking cups, top each with a pinch of sea salt and let them sit in the freezer until solid.
Check out Minimalist Baker's version made with cacao butter for an ultra-smooth, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate you will love.
Nakd Graveyard Chocolate Mousse Pots
How cute are these adorable graveyard mousse pots from Wallflower Kitchen?! The mousse is made from avocado, maple syrup and cocoa powder with a raw energy bar crumbled on top. You could make your own "dirt" by blending dates, cocoa powder and coconut or nuts until it forms a dough, then crumbling it on top.
The little tombstone cookies are made with ground almonds, lemon and poppyseed for a yummy, citrus twist. These may take a few steps to assemble but they'd be a hit at any Halloween party or scary movie marathon.
