Naturally sweet, high in fiber, and full of flavor. The most delicious homemade snack!

I am loving these with some yogurt for a quick gran-and-go breakfast situation.

These bars are so easy and so delish! Whenever I make these for work friends or some sort of gathering, they are gone within minutes! These pack a lot of nutrients without a ton of sweeteners that you’ll often find in packaged snacks. The sweet potato adds a subtle sweetness, with an extra boost of vitamins. 

These are gluten free and vegan, and can be made nut free by just subbing a seed butter in place of the peanut butter! 

Enjoy! xx
