Healthy Oatmeal Bars

These soft-baked, Healthy Oatmeal Bars are easy to make and great for breakfast! Moist and perfectly sweetened with no added sugar, this oatmeal protein bar recipe is vegan, gluten-free, and so delicious.

Healthy chocolate oatmeal bars are easy and so full of protein. My kids love them so much and say they love having them for breakfast before they go to school. As teenagers they want hassle-free breakfast options that they can just grab and eat on the way to school! I personally love them too! When you take a bite you will get a soft and chewy texture. You can definitely taste the peanut butter and banana in there. Combined with chocolate chip, it’s just perfection. What’s great is my kids can’t tell they have any protein in them!
