Inspired by the current fidget toy craze, POPSUGAR created a recipe for an edible fidget spinner that is perfectly suited for the upcoming fall season.
The Pumpkin Pie Fidget Spinner takes the form of a handheld treat that is made with regular pie ingredients and shaped with a fidget spinner-shaped cookie cutter. Although some skill is required for creating some of the more intricate details on the toy-inspired edible, the process of assembling the treat has the potential to serve as a fun way to develop one's dexterity before playing with the finished product.
Hoping to capitalize on the popularity of fidget toys, brands are releasing spinners that double as everything from bath bombs and bottle openers to jewelry and writing utensils. POPSUGAR has also shared other edible fidget spinner recipes that may be assembled with miniature cookies or pizza ingredients.
