I know I am horrible at planning ahead for breakfast. I never leave enough time and don’t have the right foods on hand to make a good breakfast. That is why I like planning ahead and making these energy bars. I can whip up a batch on the weekend, pop them in the freezer, and grab one on the go during the work week.
No more need to grab a packet of oatmeal or even worse, a danish or bagel from the convenience store. Spend a twenty minutes making these energy bars and you will thank me on weekday mornings when you are running out of the house and only have twenty seconds to throw some breakfast in your bag!
