I’m so excited to be partnering with Pamela’s Products to bring you some great gluten-free Back to School lunch box and treat options!

By next week most kids in the U.S. will be back in school. Besides getting back into the homework routine, and kicking off after school activities, moms will be endeavoring to pack nutritious, filling lunches to keep their students fueled for a full day of learning! I think I’m like most moms, my first priority is a well-balanced lunch. I always try to pack a great protein source, fruits and vegetables and maybe a cheese stick and yogurt. Being gluten-free, my kids often pack some rice crackers, gluten-free pretzels and maybe some nuts for a quick snack between classes too.

However, despite packing good-for-you foods, my kids love something sweet too. I’ve done this long enough that I know something fully sugar-laden isn’t a great choice. It’s the first thing they might eat, leaving the apple slices or baby carrots to steam away in a hot lunch box until unpacked, untouched, at home. Also dense sources of sweets tend to cause one’s blood sugar to spike, offering an exhilarating pick up followed by a crashing low, which isn’t conducive to paying attention in a warm classroom.

Regular readers will have noticed I have a small army of gluten-free partners who are staples in the Boulder Locavore kitchen. They are often the perfect swap out for a gluten ingredient, allowing us to eat as ‘all the gluten-eaters’ do. They are stealthy, never letting on with taste or texture that they are a gluten-free ingredient and are often natural, organic or made with wholesome ingredients we cherish. Pamela’s Products is a star in that line up for us. We’ve been using their mixes for years, both directly as instructed as well as swapping them into other recipes for a shortcut. We love Pamela’s and trust them.

Imagine my thrill to learn Pamela’s has come out with a gluten-free cookie reminiscent of a gluten-filled childhood favorite. ‘Figgies & Jammies’ are extra-large, soft cookie filled with figs and fruit; flavors include, Mission Fig, Strawberry & Fig, Raspberry & Fig and Blueberry & Fig. The flavors are true and fresh with a texture that is irresistible.

In addition Pamela’s Products has also just released a line of gluten-free graham crackers, both full sized and minis, in Honey, Chocolate or Cinnamon flavors. Both the Figgies & Jammies, as well as the Grahams, allow easy on-the-go snacking or lunch box additions. Both the Figgies & Jammies and the Grahams are produced on lines certified by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO) and are made with clean, non-GMO ingredients without artificial flavors or colors.

I feel great about adding to Figgies & Jammies and Grahams to our school lunch boxes, to be eaten as is, as well as with some spreadable option for the Grahams. A smear of natural peanut butter on any of the flavors of full sized or minis make fun little sandwiches. Cream cheese spread instead of, or with the peanut butter, offers a delicious different cookie sandwich that is equally delicious.

When school is done for the day, Do It Yourself No Cook S’more Treats are great fun! Pamela’s Honey Grahams spread with a thin layer of marshmallow fluff (store purchased or our recipe for Organic Marshmallow Fluff below) and sprinkled with mini chocolate chips are an irresistible taste treat. Kids can make the treats themselves (with Mom’s watchful eye on quantity!) and they are a ‘just right’ sweetness.

No Cook S'Mores Treats {gluten-free} with Homemade Organic Marshmallow Fluff

Making homemade Marshmallow Fluff is easy and quick, as well as allows the use of your preferred ingredients. This version used organic ingredients. The final fluff is light, airy, not overly sweet and easily spreadable for kids to make their own S'Mores Treats (under Mom's watchful eye for consumption quantity)! Gluten-free kids now get to take part in the s'mores eating and these don't require any cooking. Please note that if using the Homemade Organic Marshmallow Fluff recipe in the S'Mores Treats, the preparation of that recipe does require use of the stove top.

Ingredients

• ▢ Pamela’s Products Honey Graham Crackers
• ▢ ½ cup Mini Chocolate Chips (use more if making a larger quantity of treats), placed in a small bowl
• ▢ Organic Marshmallow Fluff (see below) or store-purchased Marshmallow Fluff

Ingredients for Organic Marshmallow Fluff:

• ▢ 1 large Organic Egg White , room temperature
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
• ▢ ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons Organic Granulated Sugar
• ▢ ¼ cup Organic Light Corn Syrup
• ▢ 2 tablespoons Water
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• ▢ 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• ▢ Accurate Candy Thermometer

Instructions

Instructions for making Organic Marshmallow Fluff:

• Set up a standing mixer with the egg white and cream of tartar in the bowl. Lightly whisk together by hand just to begin to mix the cream of tartar into the egg white.
• In a small saucepan on the stove top, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water and salt over medium-high heat, stirring to combine and periodically while it cooks.
• Turn on the mixer to medium-high speed allowing medium peaks to form (the mixer should run while the sugar mixture comes to temperature on the stove top).
• Allow the sugar mixture to come to a boil and monitor the temperature closely. Once it reaches 240 degrees, remove it from the heat.
• Slowly drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of the hot sugar mixture into the egg mixture in the mixing bowl. Once incorporated, slowly drizzle the remaining sugar mixture into the mixing bowl as the mixer is operating (note: if it is poured too quickly it can cook the egg white). Continue to mix for 4 minutes at medium-high speed, during which time it will become glossy in appearance and airy in texture.
• Add the vanilla and continue to beat 2 additional minutes. Remove and use immediately or place in the refrigerator in a sealed container. Use within 2 weeks.

Instructions for making the S’Mores Treats:

• Split the graham crackers into two halves along the line in the middle. Spread some of the marshmallow fluff on the flat side of one of the halves.
• Place the marshmallow fluff side of the graham cracker half facing down on top of the mini chocolate chips; press down gently forcing the fluff into the chocolate chips.
• Remove the graham cracker from the chocolate chips and place the other half on top!
