How to Make Peeps Fruit Skewers
Wash and cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces.
Slide a Peeps bunny onto a skewer.
Add fruit pieces above it in a colorful pattern.
Continue layering fruit until the skewer is full.
Finish with another Peep at the top if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Tips
- Use short skewers or cut them in half for younger kids.
- Swap fruit depending on the season (pineapple, strawberries, or grapes work great).
- Let kids build their own skewers for a fun Easter activity.
Make Ahead Tip
These Peeps fruit skewers can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated, but keep in mind that Peeps change texture in the fridge. The marshmallow can absorb moisture from the fruit and become soft, or dry out and become firm.
For the best texture, it’s best to add the Peeps right before serving.
Perfect For
- Easter parties
- Spring classroom snacks
