Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup dried strawberries or fresh, chopped
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter or almond butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, dried strawberries, and salt.
  3. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey and peanut butter, stirring until melted and smooth.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the peanut butter mixture over the oat mixture and stir until evenly combined.
  6. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish.
Baking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  2. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.

Notes

For added crunch, consider mixing in some nuts or seeds like almonds or sunflower seeds. If you prefer a sweeter bar, adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to taste. Make sure to press the mixture firmly into the baking dish; this helps the bars hold together better once they cool.
