Rudolph Celery

The kids are going to gobble up their veggies with these fun snacks! Making these Rudolph treats are not only fun to eat, but they’re fun to make as well!

The kids can easily join in on the fun and help make these yummy treats. Instead of cookie decorating this year, maybe you’ll have a celery decorating party instead?!

Ok, ok…we still decorate cookies too! (It’s one of my favorite parts of the holiday season!)

However, it could be fun to make healthy holiday themed bento lunches or a cute Christmas after school snack for the kids. And unlike some “kids snacks” that you find on Pinterest that are super complicated, this recipe is just SO easy!

All you need are a few basic ingredients and maybe 10 minutes to make them!

There’s no cooking or baking required! Just assemble and enjoy!

For your convenience, I’ve provided ad links to supplies used to make this recipe; see our disclosure policy here. 

  • Celery
  • Creamy Peanut Butter
  • Mini Candy Eyeballs
  • Red Jelly Beans
  • Small Pretzel Twists

What Can I Use Instead of Peanut Butter?

If allergies are a concern or your school doesn’t allow peanut butter in lunches, here are a few great tasting alternatives!

  • Almond Butter
  • Cashew Butter
  • Sunbutter — A nut free spread made from sunflower seeds
  • Cookie Butter — A delicious sweet spread made from Speculoos cookies (this would be more of a treat!)

How To Make Reindeer Celery

Cut each celery stalk into 3-inch or 4-inch sections.

To Assemble the Reindeer:

  1. Place a generous scoop of peanut butter inside the celery stalk and spread so that the peanut butter is even on top.
  2. Press two mini pretzels into the peanut butter at the top of the celery to be antlers. You may need to angle the pretzels to fit.
  3. Press two candy eyes into the peanut butter, just beneath the pretzel antlers.
  4. Place a red jelly bean in the middle, as the nose.
