Get Lunchbox Ready With These Easy Nut-Free No Bake Muesli Bars

These allergy-friendly muesli bars are perfect for school lunchboxes and mamas on the go. They’re so simple to make and incredibly versatile. Switch up the flavours and ingredients for your own twist but this combination really works.

Making your own muesli bars is very budget friendly compared to the store bought versions. Plus you’re avoiding all those hidden sugars and preservatives that we’re better off avoiding.

Top tip: I always recommend using organic dried fruit to avoid sulphur dioxide. Sulfites are preservatives used in high quantities, especially in raisons, sultanas and apricots. These have been known to aggravate symptoms of asthma, bronchitis and even cause rashes, hives and upset tummies.
