These bars are a great way to use up leftover fruit. I always have a few bananas and mangoes on hand, so these bars are a perfect way to use them up.

The tropical fruit bars were a bit too tart for my liking, but I added a little bit of honey and they were perfect.

I didn't have any graham cracker crumbs on hand, so I used crushed pretzels instead. They worked great!
