I've got a new recipe for you today that's technically part of my baking series. But no one will mind if you don't actually have to bake them in the oven, will they? My girls seriously love them so much that they dance around the kitchen when they see me making them. :)
And I love it when I have a batch of these bars on hand because then I am prepared with yummy, filling snacks when I hear the inevitable, "I'm hungry..." These bars would also be a great way to supplement a lunch or even have as a quick breakfast with a side of fruit. I think the moral of the story is that it's hard to go wrong with this recipe, so I hope you and your family enjoy them just as much as we do! Try these Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats or these No Bake Samoa Cookies too!
Denise says
These are delicious! I substituted Kamut (puffed wheat) for the rice and added in crushed Walnuts and raisins. Yum!
What is the serving size?

I guess I was looking for the peanut butter balls no bake. I couldn’t find it when I clicked on the link.

I’d also love another suggestion for cereal to use since they won’t be making any more of the enjoy life crunchy flax.
Mar says
Uncle Sam cereal has flax seeds

I made these with Fiber One Honey Clusters cereal. Delicious!
Jamie says
I tried this with Trader Joe's High Fiber O's, and i thought it was good!
Sooz says
At the top of the recipe it says "cook time 1 hr" but as these are no-bake bars....typo???
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
The "cook" time is the fridge time.
Sooz says
DOH!!!
Thanks!
Randi says
That cereal has been discontinued. Is there an alternative that you recommend?
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi. We've not tried this with a different cereal just yet. Another whole grain, low ingredient choice like puffed rice might be a good option.
Amy says
My kids LOVE this. I double it & make thicker bars because we go through them so fast

Liz says
Does it matter what type of oats are used? Quick oats or old-fashioned oats? Looking forward to trying this.
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
I use Bob's Red Mill Organic Quick Oats. :)
Melissa says
Can all natural peanut butter be used? By all natural I mean just ground peanuts...no added oils, sugars, etc.
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Absolutely. We only use peanut butter with peanuts and maybe a little salt as the ingredients.
Suzanne says
I can't find this cereal either can you please give me a substitute?
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi. You could use any other whole grain cereal.

Debbie says
I have looked online for the Enjoy Life crunchy flax cereal and I can't find it. Do they still make it?
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi. They do. This might help you locate an outlet that sells it near you: http://shop.enjoylifefoods.com/Crunchy-Flax-with-Chia/p/ENJ-00979&c=EnjoyLife@Cereals.
Kim says
They discontinued it. I called them and was so disappointed.

I don't see the recipe on this page. Can someone post it, I would love to try these.
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi Julie. The recipe is there. We might have had a brief website hiccup. :)
Kaleigh says
Delicious!! I eat them for breakfast, and when I get that mid-day slump and need a snack. My husband really likes them too.
(I added a little coconut oil and vanilla extract to mine, and I didn't have this exact cereal so I used Ezekial's sprouted grain cereal.)
Cathy says
These look great! I have a similar recipe that I have found and used. http://cathyscleaneatingchronicles.blogspot.com/2016/06/peanut-butter-oat-bars.html

Hi there. We do not provide those details. This post might help you see why: https://www.100daysofrealfood.com/2013/01/04/healthy-eating-defined/.
Kristen h says
Where is everyone finding this cereal? It's sold out and discontinued online.... Any tips on where to find it? I'm not near a Whole Foods.
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi there. I know you could order it online. Here is one source: http://www.iherb.com/p/32781.
Kristen h says
When you click on the link it says the item is discontinued and not in stock.

Gwen says
Can I make these bars without the cereal (just the oatmeal)? Or is there another version of it? Thank you!
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi Gwen. We've not tried that.
Tara says
sounds great! Do you use regular or natural pb.? We are a natural pb house but worried the bars would be too runny as its a lot more loose than regular pb
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi Tara. Lisa uses organic peanut butter.
Kath says
What should the texture be like before these are chilled? I found it was almost runny so added a little more of the dry ingredients and then it was hard to spread out in the tin. I'm wondering which is closer to the original. Being British I'm not as comfortable measuring with a cup, especially ingredients like peanut butter, as I would usually just weigh it out. I also think my peanut butter is runnier than some other brands.
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Hi there. They will be soft and a little sticky but firm up in the fridge.
Shea says
These were delicious! I melted semi-sweet chocolate chips and spread on top of the bars before cutting. A yummy desert the kids and I loved.
Trudy says
Do you use rolled oats or quick oats?
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Rolled oats.
Stephanie Uetrecht says
I have been using quick oats but ran out so I'll try rolled oats next batch. I've been making this continuously as a great workout food for my family. This is a great replacement energy source.
Sue Anna says
Where do you find this cereal?
Carla says
I found it at grocery outlet. .79 per box.

Emily says
What kind of oats do you use for this - steel cut, rolled, quick-cooking, etc? Seems like the bars could be too chewy/crunchy if you use the wrong type. Thanks!
Amy Taylor (comment moderator) says
Rolled. ;)
