You may remember that a couple of weeks ago I posted this recipe for homemade Sunflower Butter<\/a>.<\/span> Made with just sunflower seeds and a few other natural ingredients, it’s a great alternative to peanut butter for families dealing with nut allergies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Even if you are not dealing with a nut allergy in your family, many schools and nurseries no longer allow children to bring any nut products in their lunches or for snacks so this is a brilliant substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Sunflower Butter Energy Bars are so easy to make and will keep in the fridge for several days, perfect to have on hand for an afternoon snack for kids or to pop into their lunchbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are also packed full of nutritious ingredients like rolled oats, chia seeds and ground flaxseed (which is high in fibre and a great source of plant-based Omega 3’s). The bars are naturally sweetened with coconut and honey which makes them very appetising to kids!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chocolate drizzle on top is completely optional but it does add a lovely finish to the bars and of course makes them even more kid-friendly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These bars keep really well in the fridge for several days so they are perfect for making in bulk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
