No Bake Peanut Butter Granola Bars

Fit For Life Physical Therapy

Rebecca Youngs, MS, RD, LD

These one-bowl, easy-to-make granola bars are great to have on hand throughout the week for a snack or paired with protein like Greek yogurt for a balanced breakfast.  Feel free to change up the mix-ins to raisins, mini chocolate chips, peanuts, or dried blueberries.

Ingredients

• 3 cups of rolled oats
• 1 ¼ cups of peanut butter
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• ¼ cup honey
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ½ cup dried cranberries
• ¼ cup slivered almonds
• ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes

Directions

1. In a large bowl, add all ingredients.
2. Mix well. If the mixture seems dry, add more peanut butter.  Spread into an 8x8 baking pan and press down with the back of a spatula or a clean hand.
3. Place in the refrigerator for 3 hours to set.
4. Remove from the refrigerator and slice into 8 bars. Wrap individually and store in a bag in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
