How to Prepare Layered No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Bars [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Lightly grease a 9x9 inch square pan and set aside.
  2. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter. Slowly stir in coconut cream, coconut sugar, vanilla and sea salt. Continue until all the sugar has dissolved.
  3. Lower heat and mix in the quick oats and shredded coconut. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.

  6. Using your hands, crumble the remaining oat mixture evenly over the chocolate/peanut butter layer.
  7. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight. Bring to room temperature before cutting into bars.
  8. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to a month.
