Let me start by saying my kids are PICKY eaters. As in my daughter will not open her mouth if I try to get her to eat something foreign to her (including any kind of meat) so I have to be creative and make “snacks” that are both nutritious and delicious! I can’t even remember where I found this recipe but it is one we go to regularly. It takes 5 minutes to prep, 16-18 minutes of baking and voila healthy snacks for my picky eaters:) let me know in the comments below if you want any more BLW ideas or recipes I would love to share! These are great for lunch , for a snack on the road and my entire family enjoys them, even my husband who is pickier than my kiddos!!

Ingredients

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup milk
• 2 cups unsweetened applesauce (any brand will do)
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 5 Tablespoons butter , melted
• 1/2 cup of organic honey (any brand) you can also replace this with sugar if you don’t want sugar free
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or nutmeg (I prefer to mix them both)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1) preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line or lightly grease a 12 cup muffin tray and set aside

Step 2) In a large bowl, combine the oats, applesauce, milk, egg, vanilla, honey, and butter.

Step 3) fold in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon/nutmeg

Step 4) pour batter evenly into the muffin tin

Step 5) bake for 16-18 minutes or until muffins are cooked through (* I check with a toothpick) do not overcook or they will be dry!

Step 6) remove to a cooling rack and serve when cool. I add jam on top as a treat for my kiddos but feel free to add whichever toppings you like!

You can also double the recipe and make extras to freeze just freeze them in a ziplock bag when cool! Let me know how they turned out in the comments below ❤️

Now that Jenna is older, and our family has grown I always make sure we get some quality mommy daughter time.

Two of our favorite times to share together are Arts & Crafts and eating delicious snacks 🙂 When we enjoy Quaker Chewy® Mermaid Confetti Chip granola bars by @QuakerCanada we feel inspired and dive right into our creative sides. These delectable snacks added a splash of fun to our family time.

One sunny afternoon we pulled out our #chewymermaid kit from @QuakerCanada; which can turn up the fun to any ordinary moment. Jenna’s favorite part was of course the yummy Chewy​® ​Mermaid Confetti Chip granola bars, she loved them!  We decorated a treasure chest for Jenna, designed a pencil case for school and made sea shell crowns while snacking on @QuakerCanada’s wholesome delicious granola bars.

I will definitely be putting these bars in Jenna’s lunchbox to remind her of the magical moments we had together. As a mother we always want the best for our children -these bars are made with no artificial colour or flavours, and  they have 9g of whole grains! Quaker Chewy​® ​Mermaid Confetti Chip granola bars for the win!  #momwin
 Quaker Chewy​® ​Mermaid Confetti Chip granola bars are only available for a limited time so get them soon! #paid #ad
