Healthy No Bake Cereal Bars Recipes

HEALTHY NO-BAKE PUFFED CEREAL BARS (VEGAN, GF)

Steps:

• Line an 8x8-inch (20x20-cm) pan with parchment paper.
• Add the dates into a food processor and run the food processor until the dates are well chopped. The dates might form a large ball in the process. If so, stop the food processor and break apart the ball to make sure there aren't any large pieces of dates remaining. Do not overheat your food processor and stop to rest it as needed.
• In a small microwave safe bowl, stir together the almond butter and honey. Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds. Remove it from the microwave and give it another quick stir. Microwave the mixture for another 10 seconds, or until the mixture is warm and runny.
• In a large bowl, add in the dates, almond butter and honey mixture, puffed oats, almonds, pecans, sesame seeds, and sour cherries (this is everything except for the white chocolate chips), and mix well. I started mixing with a spatula, but finished mixing it with my hands and fingers to make sure there were no clumps of dates. Get ready for an arm workout!
• Add in the white chocolate chips and mix again. You want to add in the white chocolate chips last to make sure they don't all melt in the mixing process. A little bit of melting is perfectly fine (and beautiful)!
• Using a small piece of parchment paper to prevent the mixture from sticking to your hands, press everything evenly into the pan.
• Freeze the pan for 30 minutes. Remove from the freezer and cut into pieces.
• Store the granola bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Remove from heat and quickly stir into the peanut butter and vanilla. Pour the mixture into the bowl with the cereal mixture and mix well. Press into the prepared pan. Let stand until set. Cut into bars and serve.

NO-BAKE HEALTHY STRAWBERRY-ALMOND CEREAL BARS

Steps:

• Spray an 8-inch square baking pan and a wooden spoon with cooking spray.

• Add the rice cereal and strawberries and stir until the mixture is fully combined. Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly for a few minutes. Stir in the white chocolate chips. (They will melt slightly.)
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press into an even layer. Let stand at room temperature until firm, about 20 minutes. Cut into 9 bars. Store at room temperature in an airtight container up to 2 days.

CHEWY NO-BAKE CEREAL BARS

Steps:

• Line the base of a 20 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment. Put the seeds in a dry, non-stick pan over a medium heat and cook until they start to pop and turn golden. Transfer to a small bowl to cool.
• In a medium saucepan, soften the nut butter and honey over a low heat for about 2 mins, stirring continuously, until the mixture has warmed through.
• Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the cinnamon and cocoa powder, followed by the fruit and toasted seeds. Add the puffed rice and stir well to coat. Quickly transfer the mixture to the tin, spreading out evenly and pressing down with the back of a spoon to create a compact, even surface.
• Leave for 45 mins-1 hr to firm up, then slice into 8 bars with a sharp knife. Wrap in strips of baking parchment and secure with tape or string. Will keep in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
