I absolutely love peanut butter Larabars. They are delicious and have the added bonus of only containing 3 ingredients (and the ingredients are all simple and natural)!
Every time I eat a Larabar I think to myself that with only 3 ingredients, surely I could handle trying to make a batch myself. So, finally, I did! I am so excited to share this recipe with you because it is a good one!
So say hello to my new post-workout snack:
These bars are extremely easy to make, and so delicious!
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup all natural peanut butter (I wanted very peanut-butter-y bars, so if your peanut butter addiction is not as extensive as mine, adjust accordingly)
- 1/2 cup pitted dates
- 4 tbsp roasted, unsalted peanuts
- 1/4 tbsp pure vanilla extract
Throw everything into your food processor and combine until smooth.
Roll into balls (or you can shape them like a bar, or whatever fun shape your heart desires).
You can eat them right away or throw them in the freezer for 10 minutes and then eat them. I liked them better after they were in the freezer.
These are seriously amazing – Cam and I gobbled them up in no time!
I definitely recommend giving the recipe a try! And let me know if you do!
Until next time,
Sam

Yummy! I think I will try reconstituted peanut butter, date and vanilla. I have to go really low fat.

Great idea! You might want to add a little bit of water to help it stick together too. 🙂
