Caramel Apple Pie Lunchbox Bars

I don’t know about your schools, but ours have a strict “no nut” policy. As you might imagine, this takes a lot of the ease out of lunch-making. No more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. No more trail mix.  No Nutella…ya, that one stings. No almonds. No almond butter. No granola bars unless they are free of nuts. Yeesh.

I didn’t want to give up granola or granola bars entirely, so I started making my own. This recipe is perfect for lunch boxes, and it’s easy to make…no baking required! They are chewy, delicious, and also gluten-free, which I suppose is another difficult obstacle to overcome when it comes to lunch-making.

Here is the list of ingredients that we put in our caramel apple pie bars…
