No-Bake Snack Bar Mixes

Trader Joe’s No Bake Nut Butter Bar Mix Combines with a Cup of Nut Butter

— August 14, 2020 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe’s no-bake snack bar mix is a simple snack that can be made without having to heat up the oven. The mix takes the form of a ready-to-blend combination of gluten-free rolled oats, almond meal, crispy rice and oat bran, which only need to be blended with a cup of nut butter and a sweetener of choice—such as honey or maple syrup.

Once all of the ingredients are combined, the No Bake Nut Butter Bar Mix can be pressed into a pan and placed in the freezer, so that the quick and wholesome snack can be enjoyed in as little as 20 minutes.

Naturally, Trader Joe's recommends using one of its own nut butter products, and there's plenty of variation that can happen when using the brand's Creamy Salted Peanut Butter or the Crunchy Almond Butter.
