Best Ever Chocolate Oatmeal No-Bake Bars

1 c. peanut butter

½ c. honey

½ c. coconut oil (Menno Home used Butter instead)

2 c. old fashioned oats

1 c. shredded coconut

½ c. chopped nuts, raisins, or dried cranberries (Menno Home used Nuts and Raisins)

1 ¼ c. dark chocolate chips (Menno Home used Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Melt peanut butter, honey, and coconut oil over medium-low heat in a saucepan on the stove. (watch closely)

Remove from heat once it’s melted together and add in the oats, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, nut, raisins, and vanilla. Stir together until the chocolate is completely melted.

Pour into a greased 9×13 pan and cool in the fridge. If you’d like thicker bars, you can pour the mixture into a smaller pan.

When mixture is hardened, cut into bars and eat. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.
