Best Back to School Snacks: Healthy & Fun Ideas with Atome Bakery 🏫🍏

Back-to-school season is here! September means busy mornings, lunchbox prep, and kids coming home hungry in the afternoon. Finding snacks that are both fun for kids and reassuring for parents can be a challenge… That’s where Atome Bakery’s frozen, ready-to-bake sourdough breads and pastries come in fresh from the oven in minutes, with simple ingredients and the right balance of energy and flavor! 

Here’s how to make this school year easier (and tastier!) with original ideas for your kid’s after-school snacks 😁

Minis Croissants: Quick Snack Kids Actually Eat  🥐

Our mini croissants are the perfect size for little hands and small appetites! They bake in under 20 minutes (around 15 minutes in the airfryer), making them a quick fix on school mornings or a cozy treat when kids walk through the door after class. Because they’re mini, they feel like a treat without being too heavy or too sweet! Parents love them as a balanced alternative to packaged snacks, and kids love them because, well… who doesn’t love a warm croissant?

We’d recommend packing a couple in a lunchbox with fruit, or serve them with a glass of milk after school for a goûter that feels special! 

Apple Turnovers: A Fruity Twist 🍎

Want to make your child eat some fruits? If your kids ask for something sweet, our apple turnovers are a winner. Filled with real apple compote and wrapped in flaky pastry, they’re a fun way to give kids fruit in a form they actually enjoy!
Bake them fresh in the morning and tuck one into a lunchbox, or save them for after school as a cozy autumn-inspired snack… 

If you’d like something a little more balanced you can add yogurt for extra protein and nuts for more fibers. It’s a comforting, fruit-forward treat made with real, simple ingredients 😉

Waffles: for On-the-Go Mornings ⏰

Our homemade Liège Waffles are the ultimate back-to-school snack idea! Already baked, they just need a quick toast to turn into a warm and golden treat. Add berries for a fruity twist or nut butter for extra deliciousness!

They’re portable, fun, and healthier than packaged snacks, ideal for busy mornings, lunchboxes, or after-school snacks. Parents love the convenience, kids love the taste, and everyone stays energized!

More After-School Snack Inspiration 🌟

Fun and tasty Atome snacks that you shouldn't miss: 

• Brioche Buns: Fill the buns with peanut butter & banana for mini sandwiches that satisfy hungry kids fast! Convenient and delicious: that’s the combo that we guarantee! 

• Sourdough bread for healthier snacks: For fiber-rich and sugar-free options, try mini sandwiches on rye or multigrain sourdough baguette with hummus, veggies, or cream cheese & cucumber. A nice alternative for conscious eaters 😉

• Our vegan options 🌱: Because snacks should be for everyone, we’ve created vegan-friendly treats that are just as indulgent and satisfying as the classics. Try our brand new chocolate walnut cookie or our delicious vegan croissant, buttery in taste but completely plant-based!
