PB2 Quinoa Granola Bars
Powdered peanut butter and quinoa flakes combine with chocolate chips in these lightly sweetened, no-bake PB2 Quinoa Granola Bars. Gluten-free and vegan, these bars make an excellent snack!
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup PB2 Powder (see note)
- 1/3 cup water
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup quinoa flakes (or gluten-free quick oats)
- 1/3 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
- 2 tablespoons Enjoy Life Dairy-Free Mini Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Mix the PB2 powder and water together until creamy. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon. Add the quinoa flakes or oats, coconut and chocolate chips. Stir until well-combined, using your hands if you need to. The mixture will be a little dry, but should ultimately sick together.
- Line a 4"x 8" loaf pan with parchment paper. Press mixture evenly into pan. Chill in the refrigerator a couple of hours. Remove from pan and cut across into bars. Store in the fridge.
Notes
Instead of PB2 and water, you can try a generous 1/2 cup of regular peanut butter. You can also try sunflower seed butter for a peanut-free option.
