Peanut Butter Crackle Slice

Moving house, having babies, balancing life… When we arrived at our Airbnb for the month of November (baby due date month) last year, while trying to do all of these things, we needed something tasty to have in the fridge.

Without any Naked Paleo Bars on hand, I drummed up the next best thing and of course, it included chocolate and peanut butter because… duh!

 

You could definitely fancy this recipe up. Add more seeds, some shredded coconut, make your own chocolate, but this is what I made, and it gives you a great base to start from.

 

Simple snacks are our thing, take it from us… this fills a gap mid-morning or as an after-dinner treat, is super easy to make and will make you realise not all raw treats need to have 20 steps to deliciousness.

Hope you enjoy!
