Easy No Bake Vegan Oatmeal Bars for Kids & Toddlers
These Three Ingredient Easy No Bake Vegan Oatmeal Bars are perfect healthy snacks for BLW, Toddlers, and Kids, and are very versatile depending on what you already have on hand!
Line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Put the oats in a large bowl.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the maple syrup to a boil. Once it's bubbling, mix it in the oats, along with the peanut butter, any of the optional ingredients and your "add ins".
Quickly mix everything together as it will become very hard to mix if you wait.
Transfer the mixture to the lined loaf pan, and press down very hard to pack it tightly. This will help the bars stay together. If you want to add more toppings on top, go for it now! Put the pan in the fridge or freezer for 1 hour then using a serrated knife, cut into 16 bars.

Helena on 2026-04-14 (5 stars): I've been making something similar but with a bit more cereal/oats and added butter. This seems easier and healthier - unless the kids need that extra fat?
my question though is why does the syrup have to be heated? Does this just make it thinner and easier to mix?
Yasmin on 2020-12-23 (5 stars): If you are mom with a toddler and a newborn with severe reflux you need this recipe in your life. I had to cut dairy and I was craving something sweet, however I don’t have time to bake or cook anything. This recipe took me 5 minutes to be done and it is delicious.
Konstantinos on 2020-09-13 (5 stars): Just made it, easy to make, tastes very yummy, I think next time I'll transfer the boiling maple syrup into the bowl instead of the other way around ???
Lara on 2020-07-04 (5 stars): These were so easy we made them the same day I saw the blog post go up! My kids loved them (we added raisins and chocolate chips) and they also loved helping to make them!
