Dipped Strawberries
Table of Contents
Strawberries are one of my son’s favourite berries!
I really wanted to make a simple snack, that I knew he would love, that is also topped with goodness to nourish.
I have introduced my son to cashew butter before and he does like it, and, as It happens, cashew butter works perfectly with strawberries.
I like the idea of giving my son this snack as it may fill him up for more than 5 minutes. I find if I give him 3-4 that is enough for him. Some days he will only want 2 halves. You will have to see how hungry your little one is.
These snacks are not just great for your kids they are a great snack for you and your family.
The flaxseed topping is a nice addition that’s adds in the omega 3, great If your little one is following a plant based diet.
These strawberries are so tasty your little ones will love them!
Ingredient information
Strawberries - Delicious and sweet, a perfect snack or as part of a breakfast.
Cashew butter - So tasty, and lovely to introduce cashews to your little ones. I use the M&S cashew butter, 100% nuts.
Flaxseed - Lovely to be able to give your little ones some omega 3 without them even really noticing!
Serving suggestion
These are a delicious snack, they can be as part of a lunch or they could be served as part of a dessert with an evening meal.
Storage Instructions
The strawberries can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. They are best eaten straight away. If you wanted to cover all the strawberries with the cashew butter, store in the fridge, and then when you’re ready to eat sprinkle with the flaxseed, this would be best.

Recipe notes
If you did want to switch out the cashew butter for a smooth peanut butter you absolutely can, still makes for a delicious snack. Make sure that you choose a peanut butter that is 100% nut with no added salt, oil or sugar.
