These no-bake bars are perfect for a quick snack or a dessert that you can prepare in advance and store in the fridge for whenever you need a sweet fix.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup dry cocoa powder
33g
1 tsp salt
5g
1 cup oats
90g
1/3 cup raisins
60g
1/3 cup coconut oil
72g
1/3 cup maple syrup
72g
2 bananas
240g
3/4 cup peanut butter
170g
1 tbsp coconut flour
16g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Start by measuring out all your ingredients for ease of use.
- Mash the bananas in a small bowl until smooth.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry cocoa powder, salt, oats, raisins, and coconut flour. Stir together until well combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In a medium saucepan, add the coconut oil and maple syrup. Heat over low-medium heat until the coconut oil is melted, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the mashed bananas and peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
5. Prepare the Pan:
- Line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides to make removal easier.
6. Assemble:
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly and press it firmly into the pan to ensure it holds together well.
7. Chill:
- Place the baking dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm and set.
8. Cut and Serve:
- Once set, remove the pan from the refrigerator. Lift the mixture out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
- Place it on a cutting board, and slice into bars of your desired size.
9. Store:
- Store the peanut butter and chocolate fridge bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Tips:

- To ensure a smoother texture, use ripe bananas as they mash more easily and blend better with the other ingredients.

- For a gluten-free version, make sure to use certified gluten-free oats.

- Feel free to swap out raisins for other dried fruits like cranberries or chopped dates for a different flavor profile.

- If you prefer a crunchier texture, consider adding a handful of chopped nuts or seeds.

Peanut butter and chocolate fridge bars are a versatile and delightful treat that require minimal effort and no baking. With simple ingredients and a straightforward preparation process, these bars are an excellent addition to your snack or dessert repertoire. Enjoy the satisfying combination of chocolate and peanut butter flavors, and don’t hesitate to customize the recipe to suit your personal taste preferences!
