Description

These no-bake peanut butter granola cups are a simple, healthy snack that’s perfect for kids and adults alike! Made with wholesome ingredients like oats, peanut butter, and honey, they are easy to customize with your favorite add-ins. No oven needed—just mix, press, and chill for a delicious treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well combined.
  2. Add mix-ins: If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips or other add-ins like nuts or dried fruit.
  3. Shape the cups: Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with oil. Spoon the mixture evenly into the muffin cups, pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon to compact the granola.
  4. Chill: Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the granola cups have set.
  5. Serve: Remove the granola cups from the liners and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Notes

  • Substitute almond butter or sunflower seed butter for a peanut-free option.
  • You can add mix-ins like shredded coconut, dried cranberries, or chia seeds for extra texture and flavor.
  • For a sweeter treat, drizzle melted chocolate on top before chilling.
