Are you looking for a healthy, yet indulging treat that you can feel good about, that requires no baking, and are also nutritious and super yummy? 

These easy Healthy No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars are so easy to make and they are definitely super yummy and 4 ingredients is all that is required! 

This amazing snack recipe is perfect for breakfast on the go or for an afternoon or a post-workout snack and it only takes less than 10 minutes to prepare. 

Once prepared, place in freezer for 45 minutes and then slice them up and you’ve got some well deserved sweet treats coming your way that is ultimately, satisfying for that sweet tooth of yours!  

The recipe requires only 4 ingredients!  Chocolate chips, peanut butter, oats and your choice of a healthy sugar.  We used agave syrup, but you could use maple syrup or honey if you wish.  It needs to be a sticky sugar to bind everything together perfectly.  

Other ways to make them even healthier?

You can make these healthier by making them vegan easily by just using dairy-free chips + agave syrup or maple syrup.  They will contain wholesome ingredients with no refined sugar or artificial ingredients.  

You can make them gluten-free by just using gluten-free oats. 

For variation, add some chopped nuts of choice on top of these bars for some extra protein.  Add some flax seed, seeds or shredded coconut to take them up a notch if you want some more texture.  Add some sea salt for the sweet and salty lovers!  

Enjoy your healthy sweet treats!!
