    🥣 Equipment

    This recipe uses the following equipment (affiliate links):

    • Medium bowl.
    • 8-inch square baking pan.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Breakfast bars ingredients
    Yes, this recipe really does use only 3 ingredients!
    • Rolled oats uncooked (2 cups). Be sure to use rolled uncooked oats (also known as old fashioned oats). Do not use steel cut or quick oats.
    • Peanut butter (⅓ cup). You can use either creamy or chunky. I have not tried this with a different nut butter, like almond or cashew, but they would probably be equally delicious.
    • Grape jelly (½ cup). You can substitute your favorite jelly or jam here.

    📝 Instructions

    Step 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Spray an 8" square baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.

      Just attempted this recipe, and it’s as advertised.
      Truly are easy to make, and they really taste great.
      I can taste each ingredient. Using these as a quick healthy snack.
      Honestly, they taste much better than the regular store brands.
