This is probably one of the easiest recipes. I love the no-bake (always love no-bake!) and the obvious deliciousness of it. So there’s that. Enjoy!! xo
I’ve been meaning to make this in what feels like FOREVER and today I almost missed out again… I had 20 minutes before nt daughters dance class and was like NO. THESE BARS WILL BE MADE NOW!!!
And OMG I am so freaking glad I whipped these up because they are the meaning of delicious!
I had to make 2 substitutions, organic honey for agave nectar as it isn’t available to me and chia seeds over flax seeds as I only had flax seed meal on hand and I wasn’t keen on a heap of powder in my bars over crunch.
I will be raving and recommending these bars to everyone! I’ve already packed myself and my husband bars for work tomorrow and I’ve never been so excited to bust them out and enjoy.
Thank you for such a quick, easy delicious recipe I’m sure I’ll be whipping up weekly now!
Ahh I am sooo happy you finally made them and loved them!! Thank you so much for the review!! xo
These bars are my favourite recipe I’ve made from this site! They taste amazing and are so easy to make. I love them as they are, but I also love customizing them and trying different ingredients in them – sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, raisins, dried cherries, pumpkin seeds, pecans, oats, milk, semi-sweet, or white chocolate chips. They’re fantastic every time. I also love to add a dash of cinnamon to them. My family really enjoys them too!
It’s so fun to customize them! That’s kinda my favorite part – aside from the creamy crunchiness 🙂 I”m so happy you guys love them!! xo
So delicious! I absolutely love this recipe!!
