These oatmeal chocolate chip bars are a delightful way to get some protein.\u00a0 They’re the perfect quick snack when you need a boost in energy but are craving a bit of sweetness, too. The oats provide a chewy base, while peanut butter adds creamy richness and just a hint of nuttiness to the bar. Every single bite is a delicious balance of sweet and savory with the melty chocolate chips throughout. These bars are easy to make and even easier to enjoy, making them an ideal option for a quick breakfast on the go or an afternoon pick-me-up. Equally a treat for kiddos and adults, you can easily double the batch for a satisfying snack that will become a family favorite.<\/p>\n
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F and prepare a 13×9-inch baking pan by greasing it well. Then, in a large bowl or stand mixer, cream together the butter, sugars and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Set aside.<\/p>\n
In a separate smaller bowl, put the flour, oats, baking soda and salt and gently stir to combine. Gradually beat the dry mixture into the creamed mixture and mix well. Spread into the greased baking pan. Sprinkle the top with chocolate chips.<\/p>\n
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until dough is lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, combine the icing ingredients while the dough is cooling. Drizzle the icing over the top and allow the dough to cool completely. Cut into bars.<\/p>\n
Once the bars have been glazed, cooled and cut, transfer them to an airtight container. If you have a few layers, be sure to keep parchment paper in between them so that they don’t stick together. They’ll keep for up to seven days in the fridge.<\/p>\n
Yes. Layer the frozen bars in parchment paper, keeping them from becoming too pressed together. Store them in a zip-top freezer-safe bag or other airtight freezer-safe container. They’re freshest when consumed within three months.<\/p>\n
Homemade chocolate chip oatmeal bars are best when stored in the fridge or in cooler areas of your kitchen, such as food cupboards or a dark pantry. The glue holding these bars together is the butter, which has a low melting point. If these bars warm up too much they’ll fall apart quite easily.<\/p>\n
If you want to play around with these bars, you can add honey as a sweetener, chia seeds for fiber, protein and calcium, flaxseed for additional fiber and omega-3s and swap the peanut butter for almond butter for a high-quality fat and a nuttier taste. These ingredients are all excellent binders as well. You may need to add a little extra honey if you don’t soak the chia seeds first, as dried chia seeds may cause crumbling in the bars.<\/p>\n
We recommend baking some muffins to go along with these yummy oatmeal chocolate chip bars if you want to create additional snack options in your home for quick and easy food access. Some favorites include these easy banana muffins<\/a>, a healthy and moist zucchini muffin<\/a>\u00a0and some protein balls<\/a> to add a little extra nourishment to your afternoon snack attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Part protein bar and part cookie, these oatmeal chocolate chip bars are the perfect sweet treat for an after-school snack or a quick and easy on-the-go breakfast.
