Applesauce Cereal Snacks or Bars image

Made this up to give my toddler a healthy and yummy snack--and to use up some of the millions of Cheerios we seem to always have in the pantry! Great to take to play groups, no eggs or honey so even young babies can share. Substitute any cereal you want!

1 cup raisins (or other dried fruit)

1/4 cup brown sugar
1 -2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • To make bars press into a 9x9 pan.
  • To make bite sized snacks, spread loosely onto a jelly roll pan.
  • Bake at 350 20-30 minutes unyil crisp and golden--watch the snacks, they cook faster.
