2Sunkist Little Snapper citrusI used Cara Cara oranges
1Strawberry
2Raisinsfor the eyes
Instructions
Slice one citrus fruit in half crosswise and lay each half flesh-side down on a serving platter/board, to create the “body” of the crawler.
Slice remaining citrus fruit into cartwheel halves* and position 6 halves, rounded peel-edge up, around the “body” of the crawler to form “legs.”
Slice off the stem end of the strawberry; then halve lengthwise to produce a “head.”
Position each “head” against the body of the crawler, flesh side down; secure with a toothpick, if desired.
Attach raisin eyes with toothpicks.
Reserve unused fruit for additional snacking
Recipe Notes
* Turn the unpeeled fruit on its side and cut a thin slice from both ends; discard ends. Then slice the fruit crosswise into approximate 3/8” wheels. Slice wheels into halves.
