Servings: 2 servings
Calories: 95kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Oranges
- 150 g of Blueberries
- 150 g of Grapes quartered
Instructions
- Slice: Slice the top off each orange. We like to cut it in a zig-zag pattern to make it look more like the top of a carved pumpkin.
- Scoop: Carefully cut around the inside of the orange to loosen the flesh, then scoop it out with a spoon. Set the orange flesh aside rather than throwing it away.
- Carve: Use a small sharp knife to carefully carve a Jack-o'-lantern face into the orange peel.
- Fill: Fill each orange with the blueberries, quartered grapes and any of the chopped orange you want to add back in.
- Top: Replace the top and serve.
Notes
- Choose oranges with a fairly flat base so they stand upright once filled.
- A grapefruit spoon can make scooping the orange flesh out much easier.
- Pat very juicy fruit dry before adding it so liquid doesn't collect in the bottom.
- Keep the carved openings fairly small so the orange shell stays sturdy when filled.
- If you're making a batch, draw several different face ideas on paper first so you can carve them quickly.
- For young children, cut small round fruit such as grapes lengthways into quarters before serving.
