I love anything that is quick, easy and delicious to cook! These Nut Bars fit perfectly into all three of those categories!
All you need is one large mixing bowl, a food processor (or a knife and some elbow grease) a pan and a fridge! TADA! These Nut bars are so easy for children to make, just remember they are best enjoyed at home as to avoid nut allergies at school x
