Savoury snack ideas

Crispy, cheesy, herby, salty  sometimes all at once  there’s plenty of snack food ideas for savoury cravings. Some are as quick as fresh vegetables and a homemade ranch dip, while others are worth slowing down for – like mozzarella sticks fried to golden perfection or a slice of tarte flambe still warm from the oven. 

Tip: savoury snacks love dips. Keep a few favourites on hand – an herb-infused skyr, creamy cheese dip, or roasted vegetable puree. Mix and match with your favourite nibbles and you’ll never run out of good snack ideas.

When the moment calls for something sweet, there is a world of great snack ideas to explore.

If you have a bit more time, our collection has plenty of snack food ideas that feel indulgent without much effort – from airy mouses to layered parfaits and soft cakes.

Tip: play with contrasts  warm brownies paired with cool skyr, or a silky mousse topped with roasted nuts.

Easy snacks

Sometimes, the best snack ideas are also the simplest. Easy snacks are all about quick wins – made ahead, thrown together in minutes, or created from what’s already in your kitchen.  

Some wait patiently for you – creamy chia puddings or overnight oats ready to grab from the fridge. Others come together in a flash fluffy pancakes made from cupboard staples, or mug cakes eaten straight from the cup.  

Tip: easy snacks are a blank canvas. Start with something simple – like a basic banana, date, or yoghurt bark – then layer on your favourite flavours, toppings or textures to make them your own.
