Banana Spider Halves with Pretzel Legs and Raisin Eyes

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Makes 8 banana spiders

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe but firm bananas
  • 64 thin pretzel sticks 8 per spider
  • 16 raisins 2 per spider

Instructions

  • Peel each banana and halve it lengthwise so you have 8 boat-shaped pieces.
  • Lay each banana half flat on the serving board, cut side down.
  • Push 4 pretzel sticks into each long side of the banana half at even intervals to form 8 legs in total.
  • Press 2 raisins onto the rounded end of each banana half as the spider's eyes.
  • Serve immediately, as the banana will soften and brown within about 30 minutes.
