Orange Jack O’Lanterns

Oct 24, 2016

Easy to carve oranges filled with fresh fruit are hardly scary, but they’re just too darn cute, and nutritious, to pass up for a simple, yet creative, Halloween breakfast the kiddos will love.

You’ll need a sharp paring knife for carving (or an X-Acto knife), oranges, and fruit of your choice for filling.

Start by cutting the top off the orange using a zig zag pattern for a more decorative look. Discard top. Over a bowl, remove insides of orange. You can use the removed orange segments for mixing with other fruit for filling.

Carve a face into the orange freehand or by using a stencil.

Fill with fruit; garnish with a few ghoulish touches, such as plastic spiders as shown here, and serve.
