These Honey Nut Bars are quick to make and great to take with you for a snack on the go. Full of crunchy nuts, honey flavor and a healthier nutty snack.
When you combine nuts with honey and cacao you end up with a real treat. This is why I think these Honey Nut Bars will be your favorite to go bars when you need a little snack during the day. I just need to remind you to cut them into small squares, because they taste so good and you might end up eating more than you should.
This recipe does contain dairy as I used butter in the honey mixture. If you can not tolerate dairy, you can replace the butter with coconut oil.
