If you\u2019d like to add any additional mix-ins, like nuts, chocolate or dried fruit, fold them in now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with about a tablespoon of oats, followed by a light sprinkle of raw sugar and\/or pumpkin spice blend if you\u2019d like. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bake muffins for 22 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the muffin tin on a cooling rack to cool.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These muffins taste even better after they have rested for a couple of hours! They\u2019ll keep at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4.-Silly-Apple-Bites.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21237\" width=\"481\" height=\"721\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4.-Silly-Apple-Bites.jpg 683w, https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4.-Silly-Apple-Bites-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 481px) 100vw, 481px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.

Place them on a paper towel to dry. Line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper. Place Strawberries right next to your pan. Also, place a hot pad next to the pan for when the chocolate is melted. Melt your white Candy Coating. When the candy coating is completely smooth, remove it from heat. Hold your pot of chocolate at an angle. Grab strawberries by the stem, dip both sides in the chocolate, and place down on the parchment paper. Continue doing this for all strawberries.     <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let Strawberries set on your counter until hard. Melt milk chocolate and place it in a Ziploc bag with a small cut in the corner. Pipe on eyes and mouth and let it set. Place in the fridge to set more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>TIP:<\/em> Dipping strawberries into yoghurt is a fun activity to do together, and it\u2019s a healthy Halloween treat to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/5.-Banana-Mummy-Pops-683x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21243\" width=\"464\" height=\"696\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/5.-Banana-Mummy-Pops-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/5.-Banana-Mummy-Pops-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/ozyalcinconstruction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/5.-Banana-Mummy-Pops.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.
