These easy no-bake granola bar bites combine chewy oats, natural honey, creamy peanut butter, and melty chocolate chips for a quick, wholesome snack perfect for on-the-go or a sweet pick-me-up.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (180g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup (113g) honey
  • 1/2 cup (128g) natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup (90g) mini chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • Optional mix-ins: chopped nuts, dried cranberries, shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, stir together honey, natural peanut butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined, about 2 minutes. Warm honey slightly if thick.
  2. Add rolled oats, mini chocolate chips, and sea salt to the bowl. Stir until oats and chips are evenly coated and mixture is sticky but not overly wet, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) pan with parchment paper. Transfer mixture and press firmly and evenly into the pan to about 1/2-inch thickness.
  4. Refrigerate the pan for at least 1 hour, preferably 2, to allow the mixture to firm up.
  5. Lift the set mixture out using the parchment paper and cut into small squares or rectangles about 1.5 inches (4 cm) each.
  6. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.

Notes

Warm honey slightly if thick to help mixing. Press mixture firmly into pan to reduce crumbling. Chill for at least 1 hour to set properly. Use parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup. Adjust honey or peanut butter if mixture is too dry or sticky. Optional mix-ins can be added after mastering the base recipe.
