I’m doing pretty good on the clean eating train. My biggest downfall is, and has always been, my massive sweet tooth. I decided that I needed to crack down and come up with some clean options that satisfy that without binging on sugar. Since I’ve eaten nearly the entire container (guilt free, I might add) I think this is a success.
All the ingredients are just blended together. It’s kind of hard to blend it, as it is thick. I had to scrape the sides a few times, but it got pretty smooth.
When it’s all blended, you’ll have a thick blog like this.
Press it into a pan lined with wax or parchment paper and chill. If you like the pieces thick like they are pictured above, use a small pan. I actually used a pyrex storage container that is about 6×4.
Chill for at least an hour and slice into squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator with parchment in-between, if you stack them.
You WILL NOT be sorry you made these. I’ve grabbed a couple after a workout, as a mid morning snack and after dinner treat. I may have had a couple with my breakfast yesterday. They really are good for you, so you don’t have to feel guilty!
Ingredients:
1 cup Oats
1 cup smooth Peanut Butter (I use natural pb without any sugar added)
1 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
3 Tbsp Milk (you could use almond, rice or whatever kind you drink)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/3 cup Honey
Blend, press, chill and serve! Enjoy!
Delicious..:)
Thanks for sharing.

Looks and sounds delicious! I may be trying these this weekend. Thanks for sharing!
I don't think I can express in words how happy this post has made me. I am gluten and dairy free in order to nurse my 9 month old, and am of the belief that there is no better combo than peanut butter and chocolate. I need a dessert to bring to all of our Memorial Day festivities, and in all honesty my go to dessert is a scoop of peanut butter on a piece of dairy free dark chocolate. This seems far more presentable 🙂
Sounds yummy.
uhm holy yum yes I am making these!!! like today!
Amazing!! Thank you for posting this recipe. I am trying to eat as clean as possible, but like you, I too have a massive sweet tooth. I can't get enough chocolate, so hopefully this will help.
If you have any other clean eating recipes I would absolutely appreciate them.
Love all of your clean eating posts!
yum! I'll definitely try these!!
Made these this morning with my kids. We all LOVE them!! The only thing is that I think I should have tried blending the oats first, before adding in the other ingredients. It may have blended easier. Otherwise, they are awesome!
Thanks!
Oh! Thanks! I also struggle with desserts and will definitely be trying this!
