Cake Batter Oat Meal Prep Bars

Why We Love These Bars

One of our favorite afternoon snacks is a granola bar or bite. They are quick, easy, travel-friendly, and almost all of them require no baking! These bars are so easy to make that they barely count as cooking. Plus, they’re perfect for meal prepping, ensuring you have a tasty treat ready whenever you need it.

We love anything that tastes like cake batter or peanut butter. And when you combine all of your favorite things together, magic happens. That’s exactly what you get with these Cake Batter Oat Bars! They are the fast and healthy answer to an afternoon snack, a pre/post-workout boost, a quick breakfast, or even a dessert. We’ve even enjoyed them for dinner with some Greek yogurt and fruit on nights when we were too tired to cook!

Plus, who wouldn’t love a healthy treat, packed with protein, that tastes like dessert? We don’t know anyone who would complain about that! 😉

Tips for Busy People:

  • Double the Recipe: Make a double batch of these bars and freeze half. This way, you’ll always have a healthy snack option ready to grab, even on your busiest days.
  • Portable Packaging: Wrap individual bars in parchment paper or reusable wax wraps for easy grab-and-go snacks. They’re perfect for tossing in your gym bag, lunchbox, or purse.
  • Add Some Protein: To make these bars even more filling, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder to the mixture. Just mix it in with the oats before adding the wet ingredients.

Variations to Try:

  • Chocolate Chip Lovers: Add ¼ cup of mini chocolate chips to the mixture for a chocolatey twist.
  • Nutty Delight: Mix in some chopped nuts, like almonds or pecans, for added crunch and protein.
  • Fruit Options: Add some dried fruit pieces, such as cranberries or raisins, for a different flavor and texture.

How to Store:

Store these bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months. If you’re storing them in the freezer, layer parchment paper between the bars to prevent them from sticking together.

How to Reheat:

These bars are best enjoyed cold or at room temperature. If you prefer them warm, microwave a bar for 10-15 seconds. Be cautious not to overheat, as this can cause the bars to become too soft.
