I bake at least twice a week: cakes usually, or oatbar type things. The cakes always have lots of fruit in or veg (apple, courgette, butternut squash, dried fruit) but obviously also have sugar in too.
The reason I bake is because my kids eat snacks twice a day. Once is always fruit, but the other is usually cake or biscuit type things. Shop bought biscuits are not at all filling. The home baked stuff seems to go further for them.
But.....sometimes I wonder if its not that healthy for them to eat so much cake and stuff. I am not sure what I would replace it with though! So, what do you all do?
