I’m on a 3-ingredient recipe kick lately and I’m lovin’ it! I always go for fewer ingredients when the weather gets warmer because I want to minimize time in the kitchen and maximize time by the pool! 🙂 These 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Honey Oat Bars bars are a family favorite! We can devour a whole batch of them in one sitting and have another baked and ready to enjoy in no time!

How to Make 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Honey Oat Bars

- Then, in a medium bowl, stir together the oats, peanut butter and honey. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the oats start to toast and turn a light brown on top. Let cool completely before cutting into squares. Store in an airtight container.

3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Honey Oat Bars are the perfect healthy snack. Easy to bake and you probably always have the ingredients on hand!
Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned or quick cooking rolled oats
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter (I use natural peanut butter)
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, peanut butter and honey until well combined. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the oats start to toast around the edges and turn a light brown on top. Let cool completely before cutting into squares. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
If the mixture seems dry before pressing it into the pan, add a little more peanut butter and/or honey until the mixture comes together. Some peanut butters are thicker and more dry than others.

Hi. Do these have to be baked or can they just be left in the refrigerator for a couple of hours before cutting?
Reply
Hi Kate! You can certainly enjoy them without baking them. They will just be more gooey and won’t have that toasted oat flavor. Just make sure you let them set in refrigerator or at room temperature for at least an hour so they hold their shape once sliced into bars. I hope this helps. Enjoy!

Hi Kim! I don’t provide nutritional information at this time. I would recommend plugging the ingredients you use into a free online recipe nutrition calculator like: https://whisk.com/recipe-nutrition-calculator/ Hope this helps. Enjoy! ❤️
These were so easy and yummy! Mine weren’t crunchy at all. I think it helped that I used a new jar of peanut butter that needed to be stirred so the oil was at the top after it was freshly stirred. I baked them for 12 mins and didn’t even wait for them to cool. 😉 Delicious! I think I’ll add some chocolate chips in next time too.
