3 Ingredient No-Bake Peanut Butter Bars

This was the perfect snack to make on a rainy day. Super easy and No oven needed!

Ingredients:
1 Cup-Natural Peanut Butter
1 Cup-Honey (i used about 3/4 of a cup)
3 cups-Old fashiond oats


Instructions:

Put peanut butter and honey in a heavy saucepan and heat on low until thoroughly combined and becomes a liquid consistency.
Mix in oats and stir.
Press into a 9x9 pan. 
Cover and let set overnight.  




VIOLA!! Thats it!! My hubby ate half the pan the next day when it was ready to be eaten. lol!! He did say it was a little bit dry, but nothing that a glass of milk cant fix. ;) I might try to tweak the recipe next time so its a little more moist.

Let me know if you try this!

ENJOY,
