These days supermarkets shelves are packed with the bliss balls and energy bites. Although the majority of them are loaded with sugar in the form of dried fruits, they are still marketed as a low-sugar, healthy snack. These delicious, no-bake, zesty carrot bites are a lower-sugar alternative to store-bought ones.

The rolled oats are packed with fibre, peanut butter provides protein and healthy fats, while the natural sweetness of carrots adds a pleasant taste. Even the fussiest toddler will not spot carrots because once you mix everything, it camouflages exceptionally well. What a clever way to incorporate more vegetables into your kids' diet!

The bottom line is that if you're on the hunt for a great lower-sugar snack recipe for your kids' lunchboxes, look no further!
