Spooktacular Oatmeal
Oatmeal is a beloved breakfast classic, and these simple Halloween breakfast ideas will only add a pinch of extra time to your morning routine:
- Banana Ghost Oatmeal - Start with your favourite oatmeal recipe, I used this banana porridge recipe. To make the spooky banana ghosts, slice a banana in half, down the centre and then in half again, through the middle (to form 4 banana pieces).
Lay two of these pieces, flat side down, on top of the oatmeal and bring them to life with mini chocolate chips for eyes and a raisin mouth. - Monster Oatmeal - Begin with your preferred oatmeal recipe, filling your bowl ¾ full. Add some vibrant green smoothie for an eerie touch. To bring your monster to life you could place two edible eyes on top, but be cautious as they pose a choking hazard for children under four.
For a safer alternative create eyes using two large white chocolate drops with smaller dark drops atop them. Now you've got a breakfast that's monstrously delightful and safe for kids of all ages. - Pumpkin Oatmeal - Again, use your favourite oatmeal recipe, and consider a pumpkin -infused variation. Swirl with some pumpkin puree or mango puree, for a delightful twist. Top with jack o' lantern faces by using half a mandarin or clementine as the pumpkin, chocolate chips for eyes and mouth, and a tiny piece of celery to represent the pumpkin stem.
- BLOODSHOT EYE OATMEAL - Craft a blood-curling breakfast using Banana oatmeal as your base. Top it off with banana slices, chia jam, and blueberries to create bloodshot eyes that will send shivers down your spine.
Goulish Toast Creations
Toast, that timeless breakfast favourite, undergoes a bewitching transformation with these Halloween ideas that will add just an extra 5-10 minutes of playful magic.
