Make an adorable Easter Bunny Snack Board with hummus, veggies and crackers for a festive and tasty addition to your Easter celebration!
Simply Adorable
Easter is already full of sweet treats from the egg hunts and all the desserts, so I wanted to create a special treat that’s healthy to balance it all out. And this Easter Bunny Snack Board is such a simple way to serve a nutritious snack or appetizer for the Easter holiday. And so, so cute!
A Fun Activity for the Family
I first created this bunny-shaped veggie and hummus board in early March 2020 so I could share the inspiration with y’all well before Easter. Back then, we still had plans to spend Easter with our families up in Oklahoma. We enjoyed it as a side dish with dinner that night and we all gobbled it up. So fresh and delicious! And even though we’re no longer going to Oklahoma to celebrate the day with our extended family, we’re still looking forward to recreating this board as a family to enjoy here at home on Easter Sunday and for years to come!
It’s so easy to create and would be such a fun activity to do as a family. A plate of hummus is garnished to look like the bunny’s face and surrounded by a variety of fresh veggies with crackers shaped to look like the bunny’s ears. Every bunny is sure to enjoy it!
What Do I Need to Make an Easter Bunny Snack Board?
- Plain hummus
- Large black olives
- Cherry tomatoes
- Asparagus spears
- Round pita crackers
- Red bell pepper
- Broccoli
- Celery stalks
- Radishes

How to Make an Easter Bunny Snack Board
- Using an 20″ x 13″ or 18×12″ wood board, platter or sheet pan, place an 8.5” rimmed plate in the center of the board. Fill the plate with the hummus.
- Decorate the bunny’s hummus face with two olives for the eyes, a cherry tomato for the nose, olive fourths to create the mouth shape, and asparagus spears for the whiskers.
- Arrange half the pita crackers for one of the bunny’s ears and the other half for the other ear, leaving a hole in the center of each ear to put the red pepper slices. Fill each bunny ear with red pepper slices.
- Put the broccoli at the top of the board between the bunny’s ears. Arrange the celery, radish slices, petite carrots, remaining olives, and remaining asparagus spears down both sides of the bunny’s hummus face plate with the cauliflower at the bottom of the plate.
- Place two broccoli with a cherry tomato between them on top of the cauliflower for the bunny’s bowtie.

I made this as an appetizer for our family Easter meal. It was easy and everyone loved the attempt. While it didn’t look terrible, mine sort of looked like the the Easter Bunny after a rough night out drinking. LOL. Made for some good laughs and tasty eats! 🙂
Hi Kristin! Haha, that’s too funny! I want to see it now. If you took a picture, message it to me on Instagram or Facebook as I would love a good laugh even though I bet it was adorable and enjoyed by all! 🙂
Using this bunny veggie tray for a woodland baby shower along with an owl fruit tray. Thank you for this idea.
I am doing this for Easter! What a fun idea. Thank you! 🙂
When I saw your Easter Bunny Snack Board I knew I had to make this for our 2021 Easter picnic dinner at the lake. We have a 9, 11 and 13 year old great nieces that I know will enjoy and hopefully eat more veggies. Thank you for this cute idea.
Hi Lynn! So happy to hear you’re planning to make it for Easter! I hope you enjoy building it and serving it. I bet everyone will love it! Happy Easter!
Great idea, my question is did you cook the asparagus? I have never eaten raw, so I was wondering
Hi Tina! We love raw asparagus! We just trim the ends off. You could certainly blanch or steam it if you prefer it a little cooked. Enjoy!
