Recipe Description

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ll know that I am on an epic search for the perfect homemade fruit-filled bar. You can read about my past experiments in Fruit-Filled Mini Cereal Bars and Fruit-Filled Mini Cereal Bars, Revisted. They were both good attempts, but I always felt they weren’t quite there yet. I think this latest attempt is pretty close to what I’ve been envisioning in a fruit bar. These are an adaptation of a recipe from Weelicious: Homemade Fig Bars. I’ve replaced the fig filling with the fruit and date filling that I created in my original post on mini cereal bars. It really worked out well, and the kids scorfed them down in no time. Cole has been hounding me to make them again because he liked them so much. They are perfect for packing in lunches, or for an after-school snack that is sure to be a hit.
