Homemade gluten-free snacks for kids and grown-ups

Store-bought gluten-free snacks get expensive fast. These are quick to make at home in a batch: dips with something crunchy, energy bites, bars and baked bits, all gluten-free as written.

What Gluten watches for: crackers, pretzels and granola bars made with wheat, and oats that aren’t certified gluten-free.
