Ingredients
-
1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky, your choice)
-
1/2 cup honey (or maple syrup for a milder sweetness)
-
2 cups rolled oats (or quick oats)
Optional: Add a handful of chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit for extra flavor.
Instructions
-
Prepare the Mixture
-
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine peanut butter and honey.
-
Stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.

-
Add the Oats
-
Remove from heat and stir in the rolled oats until everything is well coated.
-
If using extras like chocolate chips, add them now.
-
-
Form the Block
-
Line a square pan (8×8-inch works well) with parchment paper.
-
Pour the mixture into the pan and press it firmly into an even layer.
-
-
Chill

Refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours until firm.
-
-
Slice and Serve

Tips:

For a softer, chewier block, reduce oats slightly.

For a more indulgent treat, drizzle melted chocolate on top before chilling.
-
Perfect for snacks, breakfast bites, or a quick energy boost.
If you want, I can also give a “5 variations” version of this 3-ingredient block using different nut butters, seeds, and flavorings—all still super quick to make.
Do you want me to do that?
