These peanut butter cheerio bars are easy to make and only require 3 ingredients! They’re crunchy and sweet and serve as a great snack or breakfast for your little ones.
These bars are made of Cheerios, peanut butter and honey. Simple but delicious and they’re bound to be a favorite of your kiddo’s. If you want to try more recipes like this, try out my Healthy Chocolate Rice Crispy Treats or my Chocolate Oat Breakfast Bars. Both are a favorite of my toddler!
I love to make these cereal bars on a Sunday to have a healthy but yummy snack to have on hand throughout the week. I normally keep them in the fridge so they last longer, and they are also freezer-friendly! I hope you love this recipe as much as my toddler and I do!
Ingredients
Cheerios – I like the buy organic whole grain Cheerios, but any Cheerios will do!
Peanut Butter – I use a natural peanut butter, but any peanut butter will work
Honey – adds a nice sweetness. Maple syrup can be substituted
For Littles
I make these specifically for my toddler! Cheerios provide fiber, iron and vitamin D. Peanut butter adds a good source of protein and healthy fats. I feel good serving these to my toddler. You can serve these to your littles 12 months +.
How To
Combine the Cheerios, peanut butter and honey.
Flatten into a parchment covered 8×8 and chill. Cut into squares and serve!
