These homemade No-Bake Oat Bars / Granola Bars are an easy, healthier alternative to store-bought granola bars, customized with my favourite ingredients that are both natural and nutritious.
I much prefer making my own homemade oatmeal bars because I can control exactly what I'm putting into them, without any of the artificial additives that store-bought bars often have.
They're deliciously addictive, filling, energizing, and packed with nutrition - making them perfect for breakfast or a mid-day snack whenever you need an energy boost.
They're also perfect for meal prep because of just how incredibly easy they are to make - with no baking or equipment required.
Today, I'll show you how to easily make 4 of my favourite go-to recipes for these no-bake oat bars.
