Honey Almond Oat Snack Bars
These chewy fruit and nut oat bites make a wholesome replacement for unhealthy store-bought snacks.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups quick oats
- 1/2 cup dried fruit I used 1/4 cup goji berries and 1/4 cup dried blueberries
- 1 cup whole nuts chopped (I used Honey Roasted Cinnamon Blue Diamond Almonds)
- 2/3 cup honey
- 2/3 cup almond butter I used my homemade snickerdoodle almond butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together oats, dried fruit and chopped nuts. In a small bowl, stir together honey and almond butter.
- Add honey/almond butter mixture to oat mixture and blend until all the ingredients are well coated. If the oats seem too dry, add more honey (or maple syrup) 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper. Press (with damp hands) the oat/honey mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours. Once set, remove from fridge, lift parchment paper out of pan and cut into 16 bars- enjoy!
Notes
These no-bake bars are perfect for lunch packing. Try wrapping in parchment paper so they don't stick!
