Fun, flavorful, allergy-friendly, and easy to make. Oven-baked, but I’m sure these would be awesome in the air fryer too! Serve as an appetizer with your favorite dipping sauce (we dipped them into homemade honey mustard; equal parts honey and creamy Dijon mustard) or serve with a side salad or roasted veggies for dinner. So crispy & delicious and definitely kid-approved!
