30 Comments

1. These definitely are amazing! Thanks for sharing the recipe! I made them a couple weeks ago for my family and they were a hit! In fact my family has been asking for them since then and so I made another batch yesterday! I pair them with homemade organic yogurt and a piece of fruit and it makes a great and filling grab n go breakfast! Next time I'm going to double the recipe so maybe they will last past one meal!

   1. I made these last night and they are delicious!!!! I am going to do two things different next time: 1.) Make my own peanut butter (I had non-organic and it was a bit thick) and 2.) I will use my dough-mixer attachment on our NInja blender because I didnt get it mixed all the way through. They still turned out great, but some of the oatmeal falls off. :-) Thanks for the great recipe.

6. Hi there, sorry if my questions are kind of silly but I really want to start doing my own stuff and stop buying all that processed food out there. 1. Are the oats supposed to be cooked or direct from the package? Can I use organic oats? 2. When you say mix the ingredients, do you mean use a mixer or a spoon? If a mixer is needed how fast and for how long? Thanks, I have all my ingredients and ready to do this.

   1. The oats are uncooked and you can definitely use organic! I mix the ingredients with a spoon and then press it into the pan with my hands. Good luck!

7. can these be frozen and just take out as needed or will it dry them out?

   1. Deann, I have never tried to freeze them so I am unsure. I guess you could look up the individual ingredients to see if they are freezble. I know the oats will be okay frozen. Missy

11. Hey simple and looks great! I was just wondering if you store them at room temp or in the refrigerator after you refrigerate for 2 hrs and cut the bars. Also, have you tried baking this? If so, how would you compare the taste?

    1. I store them in the fridge. I have never tried baking them. I'm not sure how they would turn out since there are no eggs, etc.

    1. You can basically add in anything you like such as dried fruit, nuts, seeds, candies, etc.

13. Do we have to keep these refrigerated after the 2 hours? Can we keep them in a airtight container on the counter?

    1. You don't have too, but they will be easier to handle if left in the fridge. They may be kinda of gooey and sticky otherwise.

    1. You don't have to store them in the fridge, but it will help to keep them firm.

    1. I believe you can use regular oats for them.
