Cute Edible Apple Turkey (Thanksgiving Treat) image

These are really cute turkeys made out of apples that kids can make for school or just eat as a snack. They also make adorable Thanksgiving Table decorations. They can be made with either Fruit Loops or raisins. Rule: broken Fruit Loops must be eaten. Variations: head can be a cut out that is glued on or a large marshmallow with raisin eyes and a candy corn stuck into it for a beak.

Time 5m

Yield 1 Turkey

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 apple
1/4 cup Fruit Loops cereal (if using Fruit Loops you will need a few raisins for the neck) or 1/4 cup raisins (if using Fruit Loops you will need a few raisins for the neck)
6 -7 mini marshmallows
7 -11 toothpicks
1 green olives
2 cloves

Steps:

  • To make the feathers: Take raisins or Fruit Loops and slide onto toothpicks about 3/4 the way down. Place a mini-marshmallow on the end. You will need 6 or 7 "feathers" depending on the size of your apple.
  • Stick the "feathers" into the back of the apple.
  • To make the head: Slide raisins down toothpick and top with a green olive (head). Use cloves for eyes. If your olive has a pimiento you can pull it out the back of the olive and let it hang so that it looks like a turkey wattle.
  • Insert three toothpicks under the turkey so it can stand freely.
