These healthy, Nut-Free Snacks For Kids will be loved by all and are perfect for taking to schools and play groups where there are nut allergies.
Hi Friends!
Time for another recipe roundup. As you guys know, we are definitely not a nut-free household. We eat them daily in various forms and I use them in A LOT of recipes. Recently I joined a moms group in our new neighborhood and this Fall we’re starting play groups. When it’s your turn to host, you’re in charge of providing a snack…that has to be nut-free. Cue slight panic on my end!
So, this week I spent a little time rounding up some nut-free recipes for occasions like this. I know there are other parents out there who either have kids with allergies or kids who go to school/play sports/go to play groups etc with kids with allergies…so hopefully these will help all of you as well!
Chocolate Avocado Pudding
(No nuts in the pudding. Just omit the nut butter drizzle on top!)

YUM! Love spreading the nut-free deliciousness! Thanks for including my trail mix in the round-up…it’s still one of my favorite recipes! 🙂
What a delicious round up! Thank you for including my applesauce 🙂
I slightly panic whenever I need to make something that doesn’t contain nuts! A woman on my husband’s staff was allergic to peanuts and I told her she should basically never come within a 2 mile radius of my house because of all the peanut butter consumed there! 🙂 <3
Great roundup LInds! Thanks for sharing my bars. xoxo
Thanks so much for including my GF Honey Oat bars! I love this post. It’s perfect to for those going into college and are nut sensitive! I definitely could have used this while at UCSD with the freshman I counseled! Hope your squish enjoys his new play group!
not sure the pretzel bites would ever make it to the kids 🙂
