Buying snacks can be expensive, even when you have coupons. We don’t buy or eat a lot of snacks around here (mealtime seems to go better that way!), but when I can, I like to buy goldfish at the Pepperidge Farm Factory in Denver for only $1.00 per bag.
I am finding it quite fun and economical to make my own snacks though. Here are our current top five favorites. I’ll share one with you each day this week!
#4. Zucchini Banana (Pineapple) Bread
I started making this recipe when we were first married, and have added to and adapted it from the Mennonite Country-Style Recipes Cookbook ever since. See my previous post with the complete recipe and suggestions here.
Because I freeze shredded zucchini from my garden in the summer, I can make this recipe all year long. I also save money by using discounted or thawed frozen bananas as well as whole wheat flour regularly on sale at Sharp Shopper for only $.69.
What are some of your favorite homemade snacks or frugal snack saving ideas?
