Easy Peanut Butter Bars


These easy peanut butter bars are everything you want in a wholesome homemade snack: simple ingredients, big flavour, and zero fuss. With just six ingredients, including Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil, oats, honey, date syrup, roasted peanuts and a rich dark roast peanut butter, they deliver a seriously good taste with every bite.

High in protein, dairy-free and naturally sweetened, they’re the kind of moreish bars you’ll want to keep on repeat. Enjoy them as a grab‑and‑go breakfast, a mid‑morning pick‑me‑up or a satisfying post‑workout treat.

Ingredients

(Makes 12 Bars)

100g Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil

100g date syrup

120g honey

225g porridge oats

125g roasted peanuts, roughly chopped

Dark roast peanut butter (we like Manilife)

(You’ll also need a lined, 9-inch square pan)


Method

Preheat the oven to 150˚C Fan.

Pour the oil, date syrup and honey into a pan, stir to combine and heat on a medium heat until bubbling.

Add the porridge oats and chopped peanuts to the pan and give everything a good mix.

Place half the mixture in the lined pan, smooth down evenly and add your middle layer of peanut butter in blobs and then spread evenly to cover.  Tip the remaining mixture into the pan and smooth over, using the back of a spoon (or palette knife) to press the mixture firmly into the tin.

Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool thoroughly on a cooling rack before cutting into 12 bars.

Tip: Must be completely cold before cutting into bars. A sawing action with a sharp serrated knife will give the best clean cut edges!
