4 ingredients – that’s it. I can’t say enough good things about these bars. No syrups, artificial ingredients, or colors. Minimal, clean, good-for-you ingredients, no baking or cooking, and takes less than 10 minutes to pull together.
They hold well in lunch-boxes, sports bags and school bags and are easy for breakfast on the go.
Store them in the fridge for a week.
