Healthy No Bake Granola Bars

These Healthy No Bake Granola Bars are perfect for those that love a good nutritious, and filling snack but still want a little sweetness. Because they’re so low in sugar I have no qualms cooking up a batch for my husbands rides. He can’t get enough. He will individually wrap them up and take 1 or 2 with him when he cycles, it’s the perfect fuel to keep him going all afternoon.

These Healthy No Bake Granola Bars are super nutrient dense, and along with that calorie dense, so what I love to do is take 1/4 of the bar and crumble it over some yogurt and berries. It makes the bowl next level delicious and adds the perfect amount of crunch to every bite.

The beauty of these granola bars is that they’re no bake! So as long as you use raw nut and seeds you’re getting the most nutrients out of the ingredients.

These Health No Bake Granola Bars are:

• Gluten Free
• Refined sugar free
• No bake
• Dairy Free
• Low sugar
• Vegan option

In regards to the nut and seed combinations feel free to use what you have on hand, just keep to the quantities so the consistency is right when you cut into them. Because, too many nut and seeds will result in a crumbly mess and too much liquid will result in a completely different kind of mess 🙈

Some great options are:

• Hazelnuts
• Almonds
• Ground flax
• Macadamias
• Brazil nuts
• Hemp seeds

If you want to get really interesting, try also adding in some vanilla or chocolate protein powder or extra superfoods like maca, ashwaghanda, or camu camu.
