Boonanas

This tasty treat is as fun to eat as it is to make and it's a great way of getting fruit into your kids! You will need 1 ice-lolly stick or narrow plastic spoon for each Boonana!


Ingredients

  • 1 large banana
  • 1 tablespoon of unsweetened orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon of desiccated, shredded coconut
  • 2 raisins - for eyes!

Method

  1. Put the orange juice in a shallow bowl or plate
  2. On a separate plate spread the shredded coconut - not too much a little goes a long way
  3. Peel your banana and dip it in the orange juice
  4. Next, roll the banana in the shredded coconut to make white spooky ghosts!
  5. Add some raisins for the eyes
  6. Place the stick or spoon up through the centre of the banana so the Boonana can fly around!
