Ingredients you’ll need
Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make these bars. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.
- Almond butter

How to make No-Bake Almond Butter Breakfast Bars
To make these almond butter breakfast bars, simply add the almond butter, coconut oil, and honey to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat until melted.
Add the oats, Rice Krispies, chopped nuts, cinnamon, and salt, and mix in until fully combined.
Press the mixture firmly into an 8×8-inch square baking tray lined with parchment paper or foil, cover, and freeze for 1 – 2 hours before slicing into bars.
If desired, drizzle the bars with a generous amount of dark chocolate!
The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.
NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.
Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.
Can I use peanut butter instead of almond butter? Yes you can! Use the same amount as stated.
What else can I add to these granola bars? You can replace the chopped nuts with seeds, dried fruit, or even mini chocolate chips.
How long do these granola bars last? These bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. They also freeze well for up to 3 months.
