These One‑Bowl, 10‑Minute Peanut Butter Almond Bars are a vegan and gluten‑free snack made with just five wholesome ingredients - rolled oats, almond flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, and dark chocolate for quick, no‑fuss satisfaction.
Ever since I can remember, Easter meant a chocolate egg hunt and a day filled with family eating all the chocolate in sight! Now that I’m older and an “adult” I like to do the same thing, but instead of eating sugar filled treats I’ve come up with a crazy simple, easy and delicious peanut butter almond bar. Not only is it quick to make, but it’s also vegan and gluten-free!
One Bowl 5 Ingredients
This recipe couldn’t be any simpler or easy to make! It has all the sweetness you need to fix that Easter chocolate egg craving without all of the refined sugar and lengthy list of ingredients you can’t pronounce. These bars are a great base so feel free to add in anything you’d like. Mix in some nuts and seeds and you’ve got yourself a healthy breakfast bar, or double down on chocolate with some vegan chocolate chips or coconut. These bars are also super fun if you want to make some different sauces or drizzles to decorate the top with.
Rolled Oats
You may be familiar with rolled oats, quick oats, steel cut or crushed oats. The biggest difference is cook time and how processed the oat is. I went with rolled oats from Bob’s Red Mill for this recipe because they are less processed than quick oats and provide a ton of nutritional benefits. By throwing some rolled oats into this bar recipe you won’t lose any of the sweet treat appeals and you’ll also be getting:
- Manganese: 191% of the RDI
- Phosphorus: 41% of the RDI
- Magnesium: 34% of the RDI
- Copper: 24% of the RDI
- Iron: 20% of the RDI
- Zinc: 20% of the RDI
- Folate: 11% of the RDI
- Vitamin B1 (thiamin): 39% of the RDI
Easter Dessert
Do you have 10 minutes? Perfect, because that is all you will need to prepare these peanut butter almond bars! Don’t forget to consider freezing time, so they are best made in advance and served chilled. They are a great dessert to bring to Easter dinner this weekend, trust me the entire family will enjoy them and be asking for the recipe. Since they are so quick and easy to make you can use some of that free time to try out some of my other indulgent recipes that are almost too good not to share:
- One Bowl Chocolate Chunk Vegan Blondies
- Simple Spring Cranberry Apple Crisp
- Vegan Cashew Chocolate Mousse Cake
I hope you enjoy these bars as much as I have been all week! I made them with the memories of Easter as my inspiration but I can assure you I will be stocking my freezer with them all year round.
