Instructions

The Base

  1. Grind the oats and nuts in a food processor until your desired texture is reached.
  2. Combine the nut mixture and remaining dry ingredients.
  3. Melt together the coconut oil and honey.
  4. Add it into the dry ingredients with the almond milk. It will look wet and hold together if pressed.
  5. Portion it into a lined, 8x8 baking pan and press it down firmly.
  6. Place in the freezer as you prepare the chocolate topping.

Chocolate Topping

  1. Melt the coconut oil and chocolate chips over low heat.
  2. Mix in the remaining topping ingredients.
  3. Pour the chocolate over the no-bake bars and use a silicone spatula to even it out. It hardens quickly so move fast.
  4. Top the mixture with crushed almonds, coconut, or candy canes and return it to the freezer for 30-60 minutes to set.
  5. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before slicing into bars. Then, return them to the freezer until you're ready to enjoy them.

Notes

  • To keep the recipe dairy-free you need to use Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips. You'll also want to make sure to confirm your oats are gluten-free as many aren't. Learn more about types of oats.
  • You can mix and match the nuts as you like. Pecans are always a fun addition.
  • If you like a chewier texture, don't grind the oats and nuts as much. If you prefer it smoother, grind until mostly flour.
  • The better you press the bars into the pan, the better they're held together.
  • Store: the gluten-free peppermint patty bars in the freezer with layers of parchment paper between if needed. They will last up to one month. When you need them, let them sit on the counter for 10-30 minutes prior to serving.
