PIN Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Bars Recipe

 

I made you Soft-baked Oatmeal breakfast bars with none of those weird ingredients that you need to Google to figure out what they are.

Because I know you want some breakfast meal prep recipes that don’t make you feel all the guilty ickies when you find out what you just pulled from the box and shoved into your facial hole.

You guys. Before I get distracted with something else, I need to tell you that I LOVE these bars.  The kind of love that makes you want to shout from rooftops and prance around the house all day singing honey-sweet oatmealy melodiess

The softy-baked-goodness of these gluten free breakfast bars kind of hurt my heart for the first few moments that they were in my mouf.  Because, I felt like I was cheating on my usual oatmeal recipe or cookie dough overnight oats.

I have been happily going spoon >> overnight oats >> face >> 😀 for the past eleventy billion years until these breakfast bars entered my life.

And since I made them, I have been making MORE variations of cookie dough oatmeal breakfast bars, pumpkin oatmeal breakfast bars in the slow cooker, and cacao peanut oatmeal breakfast bars.If you’re feeling low carb, you could even eat some Sugar Free Keto Low Carb Breakfast Bars and sing with us!

    My husband hated a lot of things…but then he just kept eating them because they were in the house. When we first started dating, he told me he didn’t like chocolate…well I always had a bowl of chocolates out on the counter in my apartment and he ate the whole dang thing. Needless to say, he eats chocolate almost every night now. Men are so bizarre.
    Anyways! This sounds so delish! Baked oatmeal is a favorite of mine for sure. And the little swizzle on top is so cute!!

    I’m completely addicted to making oatmeal bars for breakfast too! Usually I go with banana or apple though, so I can send them with the kids to school. But these sound awesome so I may have to make a peanut buttery version just for me. Maybe I could share with the kids when they’re home. Maybe.

    Dear Taylor, These bars look fantastic! I would love to have on with my coffee right now. So dense and rich. Anything with peanut butter is a winner in my book…it’s my guilty pleasure! xo, Catherine

    OK, I want these, but my kids can’t have peanuts 🙁 I would use almond butter in place of peanut butter, but what do you suggest I would use in place of pb2? Thanks!!!

    Reply

    • Taylor Kiser says

      I am getting a few questions on this! Unfortuantely, I really can’t tell you 100% as the recipe is developed with PB2, so I can’t speak for any other ingredients. My first instinct would be to sub in 2 Tbsp Oat flour and 2 Tbsp Protein powder (to create the missing 1/4cup) I can’t say for SURE but I am about 95% sure it would work great…it would obviously be not peanut buttery, but you’re not going for that 😉 If you try it, PLEASE let me know so I can know for future questions! Does that help?

    These look fantastic – and I have everything on hand – but I gave up baking for Lent! Oh no – but these are on my list to make first thing come April!

    I was reading the recipe and wanted to know what is powdered peanut butter? Can you email me the answer please? I may not find it in the string of comments. Thank you!

      Unfortunately, they are completely different and are not interchangeable. You COULD try making up for it by using 2 Tbsp more Protein Powder and 2 Tbsp more Oat flour. However, the recipe has not been tested that way, so I can’t tell you for sure it’ll work! I hope that helps!

    This is just the recipe I need to break out of my current breakfast rut (or rather, a not having breakfast rut). I can’t wait to make these!

      Hi Teresa, I just very recently started adding nutrition labels to my recipes, and this one was back when i did not do so. However, I just added the label into the bottom of the post under the recipe! I hope that helps! 😀

      Unfortunately, I really can’t say for sure as the recipe has not been tested any other way. My first guess would be protein powder! But, I can’t tell you exactly how the texture/taste will be, I’m sorry! Please let me know if you try it!

    Would love to try making these but where can you buy all these healthy ingredients? I have never seen protein or peanut butter powder :/

    These breakfast bars are amazing! My kids are horrible breakfast eaters 🙁 It’s always a struggle to get them protein in the morning. They LOVED these bars! They taste like a yummy treat, but they are full of nutritious goodness! Thank you for the wonderful recipe Taylor! 🙂

    These look amazing!!! My fave combo – PB and Chocolate…Might be why I go crazy with Reese’s PB eggs when Easter rolls around ????.

    Could you use chocolate protein powder for this recipe…We don’t have vanilla around the house at the moment

    I want t make these for my kids but I haven’t given them protein powders. Could I leave that out? Should I substitute that with something else?

      I really can’t tell you as recipes are only developed as tested! Sorry! You can’t leave it out as it will change texture and taste. You may be able to use something else, but I can’t tell you what! Let me know what you try!

    I subbed in Biotrust chocolate protein powder and used flaxseed meal in place of protein powder and they were perfect! Trying this week with rice syrup in place of honey and adding some dates. We’ll see. Can anything be used in place of egg for vegan?

    How long will these last at room temperature or do you need to refrigerate? I’d like to make some for my son who is away at college, and too busy to eat well (lots of microwave food). Wrapped individually and packed well, do you think they would travel well? Thanks!

    Reply

    • Taylor Kiser says

      Hi! I think they would travel fine! I don’t think they would be too great out of the refrigerator for more than a day or so, but if he was just taking them around while he goes to classes, I think they’d be great! Does that help at all?

    I am a flight attendant and I am ALWAYS looking for food that travels well and actually tastes great! For a while I did the Isagenix smoothies as I felt I wasn’t getting enough protein with what I could pack. But I learned that I soon got REALLY tired of smoothies all the time. So needless to say, I have loads of it in my pantry. THIS recipe allows me to use that! I twerked this recipe just a little! I didn’t have PB powder, but I did have a dutch chocolate Isagenix powder and the vanilla. So, I added the chocolate protein powder instead of the PB powder. And at 52 I learned to make oat flour in my Ninja blender! YES!!!!! I added coconut flakes instead of peanuts and let me tell you how good this is. I swear its like eating cake. The texture is amazing and it is perfect for travel. I may have to hide out in my hotel room instead of eating this on the plane or my co-hearts will want all my yumminess! Thank you!
