When I first moved to down south we were invited to a bunch of mommy and me groups. I was so overwhelmed on what is appropriate to bring. I figured I would play it safe and go with my kid friendly Cheerios Cereal Bars. I have made these cereal bars forever, since before I even had kids.

When I have brought these cereal bars to our playdates, they never lasted long. Both the kids and the adults enjoyed them. That told me that I for sure had to share the cereal bar recipe with all of you so you could enjoy these awesome cheerios cereal bars too!

You can make a batch of these homemade cereal bars and use them to pack in the kids lunch boxes. These bars will keep in an airtight in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks…. not that they will stay around that long. I wish these cereal bars would last 2 weeks LOL, then I wouldn’t have to make them as often as I do. 😉

One of my favorite things about these homemade cereal bars, aside from the taste is that they are so simple to make! It literally takes less then 10 minutes to prep and make this cereal bar recipe. The hardest part about making this cereal bar recipe is waiting the 2 hours for them to harden up so you can take a big ol bite of tasty cheerios cereal bars!

    Do you have any suggestions for a replaecment for the raisins? Even if I needed to substitute 2 or 3 items, that would be better since no one in my family will eat raisins.

      You may use any dried fruit like cranberries. If you use a larger dried fruit like apricots just make sure you chop them up before you add them.
