Caleb started preschool this week and is loving it. Every night he asks if he can sleep in his school clothes so he can wake up ready to go. He doesn’t want to miss anything. I hope that excitement lasts until he is in high school:) To celebrate Caleb’s first week of preschool, I have a fun back to school snack today, No-Bake Sunflower Butter Granola Bars. A lot of schools are going nut-free because of allergies so instead of using peanut butter to make the granola bars I used sunflower butter, which is a great alternative to peanut butter. These easy granola bars are safe to pack in lunch boxes and the the kids will love them!
You can find sunflower butter at almost any grocery store. Look for it next to the peanut butter. It is creamy and delicious!
I love these granola bars because they are easy to make. You can whip up a batch in no time! Plus, they taste so much better than store bought.
I like to add mini chocolate chips and chocolate covered sunflower seeds. The chocolate covered sunflower seeds add a fun pop of color! FYI-I buy them at Trader Joe’s. If you can’t find them, you can just use mini chocolate chips. They will still be tasty! And good news, the granola bars will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. I love having a pan in the fridge for lunch boxes, hiking, road trips, and every day snacking!
If you are looking for a fun back to school treat, make No-Bake Sunflower Butter Granola Bars. The kiddos will love them! Enjoy!
