Easy & Healthy No-Bake Breakfast Bars

Do you stroll through the grocery store aisles and all your kids want to eat are the granola bars like these strawberry oatmeal breakfast bars lined up beautifully stack by stack? That is just what kids love, mine too.

The funny thing is (ok not so funny when they holla for another oat bar), but they want one bar after another bar, after another one, after another one until you notice you just spent $5.99 on a box of granola bars that your one child just devoured as a snack.

That has happened one too many times to the point I just make my own no bake breakfast bars that the kids (and now your family) can enjoy without the parent guilt of the price tag or consuming a whole box of processed goodness. Really, how do the manufactures get those granola bars to last for months on end?

We love no bake everything including these famous no bake protein energy balls. No-bake snacks just make life easier, right? Just as much as the famous “CLIF Kid” bars that my kids just adore.

These homemade no bake breakfast bars taste just like those well adored CLIF Kid bars and now you can enjoy them from your own kitchen! Do you get as excited about that as I do, or is that just a foodie blogger thing… :-).

Here is a secret I will share with you… these homemade no bake breakfast bars taste ultra chewy, sweet, and pleasantly comforting.

I re-took photos and updated this post recently and as soon as I made them again my husband asked, “Why don't you make these granola bars more, they are my favorite!!!!”

What makes these no-bake breakfast bars chewy?

Short answer, almond butter. Long answer, nut butter. Almond butter, or any nut butter just makes these bars fantastic! Almond butter is thick and creamy and when mixed with maple syrup or honey gives these bars a mouthwatering sugary chewy consistency that soothes a sweet tooth. Soak that sweetness in oats and you have an even creamier consistency made of wholesome fiber-rich ingredients!

Promise you will want to eat the whole pan as soon as they are ready. These homemade breakfast granola bars taste like cookie dough! They are a natural energizer to refuel kids before a sports game, in the morning or served as a dessert treat after dinner!

On busy school mornings this is what we grab-to-go for breakfast. These no bake breakfast bars are also a great way to add healthy carbs, plant-based protein, omegas, fiber and and B-vitamins into the start of your morning!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups quick cook oats gluten-free
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1-2 tablespoons apple juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (vegan or milk chocolate chips)

Instructions

  • Place almond butter and maple syrup in a bowl. Microwave if needed for 30 seconds to soften. Whisk together until smooth. 
  • Add the oats, gluten-free flour, 1 tablespoon apple juice, cinnamon, vanilla, chia seeds, and a dash of salt. Mix well to coat everything. Add the chocolate chips. May need to knead with your hands until oats are fully absorbed with all ingredients (add 1 or more tablespoons of apple juice if needed).
  • On a flat surface, place parchment paper down and then place your "dough" on the paper. Add another sheet of parchment paper on top. Roll out dough into a square shape until about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Place in refrigerator for about 30 minutes or more or in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Remove pan from refrigerator and slice into about 6 horizontal strips, then half each of those strips. Store in parchment paper placed in an airtight container in a glass container and stored in the refrigerator. Consume within 3 days.

Notes

If the almond butter is unsalted, add a pinch of pink Himalayan salt into recipe.

    Just a heads up, I don’t see the chia seeds in the instructions… I assume I just mix them in. Loving your recipes, thank you! So far everything has been really delicious 😋
