SunButter® and Honey Fruit Trail Bars

I came up with this recipe as a gluten-free and peanut-free trail bar and/or snack for myself. Sometimes I have a bar for breakfast or dessert. They are a fun, filling snack especially for people who have a lot of food allergies and sensitivities. Store in the refrigerator.
