A fun festive twist on a classic — wholemeal toast and peanut butter offer fibre, protein and healthy fats, with raspberries and banana adding natural sweetness and vitamins.

Parent Tip

This one's for the older kids — pretzels are a choking hazard and not recommended until 4 years. For younger bubs, leave the pretzels and chocolate off and use broccoli florets, banana or avocado spears for the antlers instead.
