Store bought granola bars and bites are a thing of the past. Not only do they often contain hydrogenated oils, unhealthy fats and refined sugar but they can be so expensive too! Why not try making your own instead? There's nothing more satisfying than making something yourself (especially when it tastes this good). We used our homemade baru butter in place of peanut or almond butter to make this healthy snack school safe and allergen free. They're perfect as an afternoon pick me up or a snack on the go!
