No Bake Blueberry Oat Bars (5 Ingredients + Vegan)
All you need is 5 simple ingredients to make this delicious no bake breakfast snack bar. Way better than buying prepackaged granola bars from the supermarket! They come together in 15 minutes. You just need to give them some time in the fridge to set!
The filling is super easy to make with just blueberries and water. Just cook the fruit down but don’t completely mash it up – leave some pieces whole. You can also add a drop or two of maple syrup while its cooking to sweeten it more – but I didn’t.
You can use any nut butter like almond butter or sunflower seed butter to make this! You can also use any liquid sweetener like honey instead of maple syrup.

These are fantastic!
hi they are still delicious although they came out soft. I wonder if it’s because I made oat flour using oats
Can I use regular flour?
Not in no bake recipes. Regular flour must be cooked. i recommend oat or almond flours
You can bake AP flour before using in this recipe. Personally, I like oat flour though.
I just made these, and wow so easy and divine. I will be making these over and over. I will pack them as a great healthy replenishment after working outdoors in the environment with wildlife. They will also make a great gift packaged up pretty.
These are so easy and off the chart! I made a batch a took to my office this morning. Needless to say they were devoured!!! The only thing I added was a sprinkle of cinnamon to the blueberries. I make blueberry pie and trust me it adds a nice flavor.
