Granola bars are an excellent snack. They’re portable, tasty and packed full of energy. But packaged granola bars are expensive and have unnecessary fillers. I’ve never made my own until I got a hold of the first jar of Peanut Butter Boy and realized that I needed a portable way to consume it. A little research and experimenting led me to create this recipe, which is not only gluten-free but also no-bake. These bars stay good in the refrigerator for a long time, and will last in the freezer until the end of time (or until freezer burn sets in).

Ingredients:Print

Directions:

1. Place peanut butter and honey into a small, microwave-safe bowl. Mix together, then microwave on high until the mixture is warm and easy to stir (20-30 seconds).

2. Now mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.

3. Press into a sprayed 9×13 pan. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Cut into 20 pieces.

    Good for those poor people who haven’t been able to eat peanut butter because of the gluten

    I’m going to try something similar to this with dried banana chips. I noticed you don’t roast your oats is there a reason behind not doing it?

    Love your blog keep it up!

      Hmm, I never thought to roast the oats first actually. I imagine it improves the flavor quite a bit?

      Thanks brother!

      • Dustin says:

        I think it opens up there flavor quite a bit, I do 16 oz of oats on a pan in 375 oven for 15 to 20 mins. just lightly toast them, if you can smell the oats in the air there done.
        To be honest with a lot of nuts and grains will benefit from a pre-roast in the oven(unless the store sells them roasted of coarse).

        Keep up the blog! your peanut butter looks delicious :).

    Hey Nick,

    Do you have a crunchy granola bar recipe? The refrigerator ones are good, but too sticky for me. XOXO
