These would be great for the day care/school lunch box – only issue being the peanut butter. Is there another substitute other than adding in more honey that could be used?
I’m trying it with crunchy hazelnut spread instead … can only go two ways, if its a fail will repost later today 🙂
I am also concerned about the peanut butter. What could be substituted for it? Would tahini be any good?
Yes you can definitely try it Sarah!
It says that “These bars will keep in the fridge for 3 weeks” and also “These muesli bars will last for one week in the fridge in a sealed airtight container.” Could you please clarify, thanks!
Sorry Heather thanks for picking that up! It is fridge for 1 week and room temp for 4 days 🙂
