Protein bars are great for your little ones! While they are not a meal replacement, they are a much healthier snack alternative than most convenient store-bought options. Protein bars are quick, easy and a generally healthy way to satisfy your kid's cravings. When searching for the best protein bars for kids, its important that you read the ingredients on store-bought bars or make them yourself. Pre-made protein bars like Bob's Bars are made with quality ingredients. However, other store-bought bars are often packed with sugar or contain added ingredients not beneficial to your childrens diet. To help you better understand which protein bars are best for your kids, we've listed the most common pros and cons below.
For a protein bar that you'll feel great about giving your little ones, make these Berry Vanilla Granola Bars. Free of refined sugar and gluten, these bars are made with coconut oil, which adds a bit of tropical flavor. Simple to make, we recommend trying this recipe out once yourself and then inviting your little ones into the kitchen to help out the second time. These bars make for the perfect breakfast or mid-day snack and are an engaging way to sweeten up family time.
Not a fan of all the ingredients used? These bars are entirely customizable. Add in whichever ingredients you love most. We love mixing in tasty extras like mini chocolate chips, peanuts, pumpkin seeds and cranberries.
