No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Granola Bars

Guys.

These. are. the. best.

The best as in I may have already inhaled three granola bars today. And one before I got around to snapping the photos (see how there’s only 5 bars in the pictures?!)

I have a granola bar addiction. I have granola bars stashed in my desk drawer at work, in our cupboard at home, and often I’ll throw one in my purse. You never know when hunger might strike – and since I turn into the grouch when I’m hungry, they’ve saved me on many occasions! You too…?

No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Granola Bars are so quick to whip up – they have 6 ingredients, require one pot on the stove, and absolutely no baking. So simple!

They are chewy, peanut buttery (yummm) and full of healthy oats, shredded, coconut and raisins – and no refined sugars! The bars are sweetened with honey and held together with coconut oil.

It’s best to store these bars in the fridge – as they warm up the coconut oil melts – which means they may start to fall apart a little (but will still taste delicious!) Just a warning in case you like to throw granola bars in your purse like I do. Your purse might turn into a crumb factory.

Grab a No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Granola Bar on your way out the door to work for an energy fueled breakfast, or munch on one as your morning snack.

Psssst! This recipe is endlessly customizable – don’t like raisins? Use craisins or chocolate chips. Don’t like coconut? Sub in more oats or seeds. And add more or less honey according to your tastes. Enjoy!
