Last week I needed to buy a pack of Cheerios for another recipe I was working on. I had loads left over and started to think of different ways I could use them up.

My kids don’t eat cereal for breakfast so instead I decided to make some snack bars instead.

I had lots of peanut butter and honey in the house so I’ve used those for the “glue” to hold the bars together.

I also added some dried banana chips for extra taste and crunch! The sprinkles are totally optional but they do add a little bit more fun to the bars!

These snack bars will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container. If they get too crumbly you may want to keep them in the fridge instead, just to ensure that they hold together.

    I had pretty much a full box of Cheerios in the cupboard to use up as my 4 year old decided that she doesn’t like Cheerios anymore (despite them being her best cereal the previous week!!!) and I have to say they came out really well!
