With the first week of school in the books so to speak, I thought it would be fun to have something special waiting for K after school on Friday and these gluten-free peanut butter Panda Puff Treats will be perfect! (Try saying that three times fast!)
He loves the Nature’s Path EnviroKidz Peanut Butter cereal so much that he practically begs for it every morning. I love that it’s made from organic non-GMO ingredients so when he asks for it, he usually gets it. You can easily find them at Whole Foods, Trader Joes, or Amazon.
These are really easy to make too! Feel free to add some chocolate chips (I like the enjoy life dairy/soy free ones), or even some dried fruit would be a great addition!

Very different! I would never think of this treat. I love innovative snacks.
My hubby is allergic to wheat so we also eat gluten free, I love finding new treats that I can make for us and this one is definitely getting pinned so I can make it later! Thanks for sharing the delicious recipe, I know hubby will be happy with dessert tonight. 🙂
