No Bake Nutty Oat Bars Recipes

EASY OATMEAL BARS (4 INGREDIENTS!)

Steps:

• Mix together all the ingredients in a bowl until it forms a sticky dough. If the mixture is dry and not sticky, add a bit more honey and/or peanut butter; different peanut butter brands perform differently here.
• Add a sheet of parchment paper to a 9 x 9 pan. Place the ingredients in the pan and press it into an even layer. Use a small glass to roll over the top to get it smooth.
• Freeze the bars for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the freezer and use the parchment to lift it out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares or 32 rectangles. Store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. You can eat right away, or refrigerate for about 1 hour for a more solid texture.

3 INGREDIENT NO BAKE OATMEAL BARS

Steps:

• Line the bottom of an 8 inch by 8 inch (can also use a 9 x 9) baking pan with parchment paper.
• Add peanut butter and honey into a large bowl. Place into microwave and heat at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the two ingredients are melted and smoothly blended together. You can also do this on the stove using the double boiler method.
• Add rolled oats. Stir until evenly combined.
• Spread evenly into prepared pan. Apply some light pressure across the surface. Place bars into fridge to set (at least 1 hour). Cut into bars with a sharp knife. Store uneaten bars at room temperature or in the fridge.

5-INGREDIENT NO BAKE OATMEAL BARS

Steps:

• Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Mix together all ingredients in a large bowl. Transfer the mixture to the lined loaf pan. Using a second piece of parchment paper, press the oatmeal mixture into the pan so it's flat on top. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Cut into bars and enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

NO-BAKE NUTTY OAT BARS

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the oats, raisins, and seeds.
• Place the Marshmallow Creme, butter, and milk in a large, heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a heatproof spatula, until the marshmallow is mostly melted.
• Add the peanut butter, cinnamon and vanilla extract. When a few lumps remain, remove the pot from the heat and stir until the mixture is smooth. Add the oat mixture and stir until all the ingredients are well combined.
• Spread the oat mixture in the prepared pan in an even layer. Moisten your hand lightly with water and press to pack it firmly.
• Refrigerate until the oat mixture sets.
• Using a sharp knife, cut the chilled oats into 3 wide strips. Cut each strip crosswise into 8 bars. Serve cold or at room temperature.
• For the homemade marshmallow creme: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water. Let sit.
• Place the Stevia In The Raw in a small bowl and mix 1 tablespoon water into the stevia until it looks like soft marshmallow. Set aside.
• Place the sugar and corn syrup in a heavy medium-sized saucepan. Add 1/3 cup water.
• Cook over medium heat until the mixture boils and registers 225 degrees F on an instant-read or candy thermometer, about 5 minutes.
• Continue boiling the sugar and when it reaches 235 degrees F (about 3 more minutes) start watching it carefully. When the thermometer registers 240 degrees F - "soft ball" stage - about 3 more minutes, immediately remove the pot from the heat.
• Promptly start beating the softened gelatin at medium speed and carefully pour the hot sugar syrup slowly down the side of the bowl in a thin stream.
• Add the stevia and vanilla. Increase the speed to high and beat until the mixture triples in volume and looks like Italian meringue or well-beaten whipped cream, 5 to 6 minutes. The creme will flow from the bottom of the whisk in an even, thick column.
• If not using Marshmallow Creme immediately, pack it into a plastic container, cover tightly, and store at room temperature for up to 2 days

Stir egg mixture into oats mixture until well combined; set aside until flavors blend, about 20 minutes. Spread oats mixture into prepared square pan.
