Here are a few of fun, healthy, non-sugary treats for your little spooker and their classmates!
PUMPKIN PIZZAS:
You can use any kind of pizza dough for this. I make my own with fresh wheat in my bread machine. Email me if you'd like that recipe!
pizza dough
orangish colored tomato sauce
white cheese sandwich singles
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide the dough into balls approximately 2 T in each. Spray a cookie sheet with oil. One at a time, place a ball on the sheet and then shape it into a pumpkin. You may also add a little twist of dough at the top for the stem if desired. Finish all pumpkins. Spoon over some tomato sauce on each. Cut the singles into 3 triangles for eyes and nose, and add the smile of your choice. Bake about 15 minutes.
HOMEMADE APPLE SAUCE:
3-4 lbs. apples (per quart desired)
water
Choose either Fuji, Yellow Delicious, Gala, or Rome varieties. A mixture is recommended. Wash and peel apples. Chop into chunks, removing any seeds or hard parts. Put into the bottom of a thick pan. Add about 1 in of water. Put the lid on , and turn the burner to high. After it comes to a rapid boil, tur to medium high until soft. Mash with a potato masher, or blend with a food processor. Add cinnamon if desired.
