These Apple Peanut Butter Snack bars are an easy, one-bowl recipe and they make a healthy and delicious after-school snack!
Heads up! These Apple Peanut Butter Snack Bars were first published in November 2012. Photos were updated August 2018. Original text remains. Enjoy!
When I asked you what you wanted to see more of on Happy Healthy Mama, two of the most popular answers were “snacks” and “lunch box ideas”. These healthy apple peanut butter snack bars fit the bill for both of those.
They are made with no flour, no oil, and no refined sugar, so you can feel good about feeding them to your children. And if you decide you want to snack on one, you can feel good about that, too.
Like most things coming out of my kitchen these days, these healthy snack bars are quick and easy. You only have to dirty up one bowl when you make them. If you’re a busy mom like me, you know how important that is!
The most important thing, though, is that Meghan loved them. She called them “bery, bery delicious!” She’s getting so big that I can’t help but love her words that still sound baby-ish. Here’s a picture of her trying on my wedding veil recently. Seriously?! How did she get so big?
Sorry for the off-topic moment. I don’t talk about Meghan around here as much as I used to. On to the recipe for these simple and delicious Apple Peanut Butter Snack Bars!

This is the first time I’ve included peanut butter in a recipe in quite a while. In case you are wondering, I have been re-introducing foods into my diet to see if Luke’s outgrown his intolerances. He’s done well with nuts and peanuts! I’ll tell you more about it when I finally get around to finishing his 10 month (and now 11 month!) post.
If you’d like a peanut-free snack bar, however, this could easily be made so by swapping out the peanut butter for sunflower seed butter. Coconut oil would work, as well. (Check out my Goodness Bars that are similar to these and made with coconut oil.) You can find even more healthy snack recipes here. As always, enjoy!
If you try this Apple Peanut Butter Snack Bar recipe, would you mind rating the recipe with stars when you leave a comment? It’s VERY helpful for me and other readers if the recipes have ratings and reviews. I appreciate you!

November 28, 2012 at 5:12 pmOooo… these sound sooo good! My baby boy has turned 8 weeks now and quick and easy snacks (for ME) are worth a million. Thanks yet again for a terrific recipe and Meghan is such a cutie! 🙂
Maryea says
November 30, 2012 at 9:41 pmCongrats on your little boy! I look back and Luke being 8 weeks just seems like a blur. I can’t believe he’s going to be ONE soon!
Lee says
November 28, 2012 at 5:52 pmThese look good and I have all the ingredients. Bonus.
Alexis @ Hummusapien says
November 29, 2012 at 9:41 amI bet you’re super excited about eating peanut butter again! Glad to hear that Luke is doing better with his intolerances. These bars look just perfect for an after school (or work!) snack!
Candy @ Healthy in Candy Land says
November 29, 2012 at 8:37 pmI bet my boys will love these. And I bet I will too.

November 30, 2012 at 8:26 amCan I just say how beautiful your daughter is!
Maryea says
November 30, 2012 at 9:39 pmOh, thank you so much! 🙂
Heidi @ Food Doodles says
December 1, 2012 at 3:11 pmThese are some amazing bars! Awesome ingredients! And I am so glad Luke is doing so well with nuts now! That is such good news 😀
Jen says
January 10, 2013 at 2:24 pmFound you through Pintrest and these look delishous! I’ll have to try them.
Sandra Prunty says
January 14, 2013 at 2:23 pmJust made the recipe this morning. They were delicious! Maybe, I missed this but, do u have any idea about calories. They are so good I’m afraid I will eat too many.
Maryea says
January 15, 2013 at 8:41 amI will calculate it and get back to you later today. 🙂
Jennifer says
January 17, 2013 at 9:06 pmHave u calculated yet would love the calories of this delish snack:)
Maryea says
January 17, 2013 at 9:44 pmSorry I didn’t get back to you yesterday–the day got away from me. 🙂 Here are the approximate calculations, based on how big or small you cut the bars:

Kayla says
January 25, 2013 at 10:01 pmI can not say how excited I am at finding such a great recipe- I can’t wait to it! My husband is always asking for healthy snacks. Looking forward to reading more of your posts. And btw- your daughter is adorable!
Maryea says
January 28, 2013 at 3:08 pmAww–thank you. 🙂
Sommer says
January 15, 2013 at 9:24 pmThese look delicious! Can I use 4 egg whites instead of 2 whole eggs? or applesauce instead?
Maryea says
January 17, 2013 at 10:01 pmI havne’t tried either of those substitutions so I can’t say for sure. These are just my guessed, but I don’t think the applesauce would hold these together that well. I think the 4 egg whites would work. You could also try substituting “flax eggs” in place of the eggs (1 flax egg=1 tablespoons ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, allow a few minutes to gel). Good luck and let me know if you give it a try!
Amanda says
February 5, 2013 at 5:17 amI can confirm that “flag eggs” work beautifully in this. My bf and I tried it last night with great success!
Maryea says
February 5, 2013 at 2:32 pmThanks for letting me (and everyone) know that it worked! 🙂
Anna says
October 15, 2013 at 4:47 pmI have used recipes that are similar and didn’t use eggs and it worked great. The 2 main differences were no apples and it used 1/2 cup of peanut butter instead of the 1/4 cup.
Maryea says
October 16, 2013 at 12:18 pmGreat! Thanks for sharing.
sarah says
January 16, 2013 at 11:04 amTried these this morning…can’t figure it out but mine are not hardening. Went through recipe a number of times and positive I followed exactly….hmmmm. I just put them back in for an extra 10 minutes and still very mushy….please help!
Maryea says
January 17, 2013 at 9:58 pmWe’re you expecting these to be hard like a granola bar? They are more moist than a standard granola bar–almost like a nutri-grain type. Were yours that texture? When you say mushy, do you mean they fell apart or just that they weren’t quite as crunchy as you expected? I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful; I think I need to figure out exactly what yours were like before I can guess what may have gone wrong. Sorry the recipe wasn’t what you expected!
Lena says
March 17, 2013 at 11:24 pmI think I had the same problem…I didn’t expect them to be hard, but they are more crumblier than I expected. I’m at high altitude (4500 ft), so maybe that has something to do with it?
Maryea says
March 18, 2013 at 6:41 pmHmmmm….maybe. Mine aren’t crumbly at all and I’ve made them quite a few times.
Madie says
January 17, 2013 at 8:19 pmWhat kind of apple is best?
Maryea says
January 17, 2013 at 9:47 pmI usually use something like gala or fuji, but I imagine a wide variety would work well.
Aimee says
January 19, 2013 at 3:59 pmOats aren’t gluten free
Tracie says
January 22, 2013 at 12:34 amThey are when you buy gluten free oats. I have to buy gf oats. Trader Joe’d and Bob’s Red Mill are some options.
Maryea says
January 22, 2013 at 10:36 amOats are naturally gluten-free, but often are processed in a way that can cause cross-contamination. If you are concerned, you can get certified gluten-free oats.
Lisa says
April 6, 2013 at 4:36 amOats are not naturally gluten free. They have low gluten development and are confused with being gluten free. Gf certified varieties are available, but do not assume all oats are gluten free or else you may get some sick people on your hands.
Maryea says
April 6, 2013 at 6:49 amThat’s interesting, and different from what I’ve read. I’ll have to do some more research to clarify. I definitely recommend GF oats for those who have serious problems with gluten! Thank you!
Carolyn says
January 3, 2014 at 10:38 pmHi Maryea,
Just wanted to let you know that oats aren’t naturally gluten-free. My family has Coeliac disease and oats are definately off our list of foods which coeliacs can eat. I usually substitute the oats for crushed cornflakes when making Anzac biscuits etc so these would also work well in your slice if you want to share with followers, cheers 🙂
Maryea says
January 5, 2014 at 6:52 pmEven certified gluten-free oats?
cj says
January 19, 2013 at 5:27 pmHow long do these stay fresh? How do you store them? dothey have to be refrigerated bbecause of the egg?
Kristy says
January 21, 2019 at 6:42 pmI was wondering the same…
Sarah says
January 19, 2013 at 9:57 pmSilly question, but what do you mean by a shredded apple?
Maryea says
January 22, 2013 at 8:59 pmNot silly at all! My food processor has a shredding attachment, so I use that the shred the apple into long pieces. (It looks like shredded cheese) You can do this by hand with a cheese grater as well.
Carol says
January 22, 2013 at 5:34 pmHi. These look wonderful, but I was wondering about the “shredded apple” too and how you make it or where you buy it. Do you put apple in a food processor? I think that would end up as applesauce.
Maryea says
January 22, 2013 at 8:57 pmMy food processor has a shredding attachment, so I use that to shred the apple. You can also use a hand grater to grate the apple yourself.
Lauren says
January 22, 2013 at 9:13 pmCan’t wait to try these!! Found you on Pinterest!! I am going to substitute peanut butter with wowbutter. My 6 yr old daughter has a bad peanut allergy but I love how wowbutter tastes just like PB. Oh how I miss my PB!! 🙂 always looking for recipes we can’t eat cause of her allergy! Thanks!!
Maryea says
January 23, 2013 at 11:27 amI had to cut out peanut butter for a few months because my little one was intolerant…I missed it oh so much so I feel for you! I’ve never heard of wowbutter. What is it made from? Hope you enjoy these!
Lauren says
January 24, 2013 at 11:34 amIt’s made from soy. We used to use sun butter but my other kids didn’t like it too much then we found the wowbutter. I made buckeyes once with it and everyone that tried them said they tasted just like the PB ones. We buy it at Walmart or the health food store my mother in law works at. Gonna try your recipe today!! Can’t wait!!
Kelly says
April 14, 2013 at 12:02 amYou can also purchase Wow Butter at The Superstore!
Candy says
January 23, 2013 at 4:37 pmJust made these….they are cooling on my counter, waiting for my kids to come home from school. I tried a corner and it was yummy! i think this recipe would ge a good one to olay around with too. maybe add in some other dried fruits? or dark chocolate chips for a special treat. I have been gradually making improvements in our diet and am loving your site for whole foods and healthy foods! Thank you!
Candy says
January 23, 2013 at 4:38 pmHaha… PLAY around with not “olay around with.”
Maryea says
January 24, 2013 at 10:52 amYou’re welcome! I think adding dark chocolate would be an amazing addition. Kind of dangerous, though. 🙂
Carol says
January 24, 2013 at 11:58 amI had a terrible chocolate craving last night, so I made these and stirred in some chocolate chips and I can tell you they make a very yummy oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip pan cookie! And still much healthier than my regular cookie recipe. 🙂
Maryea says
January 24, 2013 at 2:52 pmI need to try these with chocolate chips! Sounds fantastic. 🙂
Gabrielle says
January 25, 2013 at 1:05 pmI just made these and my kids love them. I used quick oats because they’re what I had on hand and they turned out more cakey.
Maryea says
January 25, 2013 at 8:27 pmGlad to hear quick oats work, too.
Tracey says
January 25, 2013 at 2:47 pmI have no lunch boxes in the house to fill anymore 🙁 so, I guess I will make these for me! Thanks for making the printing link so easy….I find so many recipes don’t print well, mucho apprecioto 🙂
Maryea says
January 25, 2013 at 8:27 pmYou’re welcome. 🙂
Angel says
January 26, 2013 at 11:30 pmhi! I just found you on Pinterest and I can’t wait to make these tomorrow! About how many does this recipe make? It looks so good I’m already wondering if I should double it! 🙂
Maryea says
January 28, 2013 at 3:10 pmThis recipe makes one 9×9 pan that you can cut into whatever size bars you prefer. I usually cut them into 9 bars. So, yes, I’d double it. 🙂
Barbara says
January 27, 2013 at 9:31 amThanks for the recipe! They turned out great and i love having healthy, easy, go-to snack ideas for my kids that are homemade and not prepackaged. I added some flax seed meal for a little extra goodness. I passed this page onto some friends – looking forward to trying more of your recipes!
Maryea says
January 28, 2013 at 3:04 pmYou’re welcome. Thanks for letting me know and thanks also for passing my blog onto friends! 🙂
Jessi says
January 28, 2013 at 10:52 amMaybe this is a silly question: Do you store these in the refrigerator or at room temperature? I am trying to find something like this that I can keep tightly sealed in the pantry.
Maryea says
January 28, 2013 at 2:58 pmThese will keep fine at room temperature in an air-tight container. They will keep longer in the fridge, but they don’t last that long around here anyway! 🙂
Kenda says
January 29, 2013 at 9:36 pmRan out of half the oats I needed! Ahh! But I substituted them for Rice Krispies and even though they weren’t as healthy, they turned out great! Since I was already taking a chance, I decided to throw in unsweetened, shredded coconut and sesame seeds and they’re great! Thanks!
Maryea says
January 31, 2013 at 4:29 pmYou’re welcome! I’m glad these worked out for you even with the substitutions.
Sarah says
February 1, 2013 at 10:40 amHave you thought of lining the pan with parchment paper? Then you could take the whole sheet out with the parchment paper – no sticking!
Maryea says
February 1, 2013 at 4:06 pmGreat idea!
Heather V. says
February 2, 2013 at 1:20 pmThis may be a silly question, but do you peel your apple before shredding or just core it and then shred?
Maryea says
February 4, 2013 at 2:41 pmI do peel first, but I’m not sure it’d make a huge difference if you skip that step.
RaDonna Murner says
March 9, 2013 at 1:01 pmI have made them 3 times now and have not peeled the apple. To me, peeling an apple is a waste of good food!
Maryea says
March 11, 2013 at 7:03 amI agree! 🙂
Jenny says
February 4, 2013 at 12:18 pmMy husband is diabetic. I’m wondering if it would be possible to replace part of the honey with Splenda to help reduce the sugar content? Any other ideas on reducing sugar? These sound terrific!
Maryea says
February 5, 2013 at 2:36 pmWhat about using mashed banana in place of the honey? The flavor would change a bit, but it would add sweetness and keep the wet/dry ratio similar. You could definitely try to reduce the honey a bit and maybe add some stevia? I recommend stevia instead of Splenda as I don’t really care for artificial sweeteners. Good luck and let me know if some substitutions work for you!
Sarah says
May 4, 2013 at 10:21 amI added banana and left out the honey, also the nut butter and they turned out fine. Didn’t even taste the banana, which was good because I don’t like banana.
Kristi says
February 5, 2013 at 3:34 pmIs there any substitutions I can make in order to achieve a more crunchy texture? the taste is AMAZING, but I’m a chew/crunch nut 🙂
Maryea says
February 9, 2013 at 8:27 pmI think adding some chopped walnuts would be a great addition and give it a nice crunch.
Marie says
February 6, 2013 at 12:34 pmThese are the best replacement for expensive meal bars I usually buy at the store! Because I’m trying to avoid added sugar, I used 1 TBSP honey + 1 TBSP black-strap molasses and they ended up with the perfect sweetness. Also added some whey protein and flax seeds, and peeled the apple. Thanks for sharing this.
Maryea says
February 9, 2013 at 8:25 pmI love the addition of blackstrap molasses. I love its flavor and also that it adds a nice amount of iron!
Kelly S. says
February 7, 2013 at 8:00 pmI just made these today. They came out beautifully and smell delicious! The flavor is great, not too sweet. Perfect for my children in the mornings! One thing I didn’t care too much for is the gummy texture that the bars get from the oatmeal. Do you think there is a way around that? Maybe if I ground the oats into a flour first? Thanks for the recipe and let me know if you have any suggestions 🙂
Maryea says
February 9, 2013 at 8:21 pmI do think grinding the oats into flour would change the texture and it sounds like it might be a better texture for you. Let me know if you give that a try!
Heather says
March 17, 2013 at 6:40 amYou could also try toasting the oats for with a little butter in a pan, that would help get rid of the texture issue and add a little nutty essence as well
Maryea says
March 18, 2013 at 6:42 pmGreat idea! 🙂
Lynnsy says
February 8, 2013 at 8:34 amHas anyone tried freezing these? I’m expecting my second little munchkin in a couple months and want to make some easy, healthy snacks ahead of time for when the babe comes.
Maryea says
February 9, 2013 at 8:18 pmI haven’t tried it, but if I do I’ll definitely report back. 🙂
Kendra says
February 9, 2013 at 10:43 pmI made these and subbed “Better N’ Peanut Butter” and egg beaters to lower the calories and cholesterol. They’re great! Thanks! My boys love apple cereal bars and I hope they’ll love the homemade ones!
Maryea says
February 12, 2013 at 11:06 amGreat! Thanks for sharing your substitutions.
Erin says
February 10, 2013 at 8:14 pmJust finished making these. So yummy. I made them in mini muffin pans because my DIY granola bars always seem to fall apart when cutting. Decreased the baking time to about 13 minutes and they made perfect little granola bites. Thanks!
Maryea says
February 12, 2013 at 10:58 amI love the idea of making these in mini muffin tins. I’m going to have to try it! 🙂
Adele says
February 11, 2013 at 9:58 amIs there something I could substitute eggs for in the recipe? My daughter is highly allergic to eggs but I’m looking for an easy home made bar an these look delicious! Maybe flax? Thanks!
Maryea says
February 12, 2013 at 10:54 amI do think flax would work here. Try 1 tablespoon flax+3 tablespoons water mixed together for each egg. Let me know if you try it! 🙂
Rose says
February 12, 2013 at 10:25 pmOh wow these sound delish! Apple + Oat + Peanut Butter mmmmmm…. 🙂
Barca Mama says
February 18, 2013 at 6:47 amQuick, easy, delicious! Thanks for sharing:)

Maryea says
February 18, 2013 at 10:21 amYou’re welcome!
Krista says
March 4, 2013 at 3:21 pmTried my first recipe today, these apple peanut butter ( or in our case almond butter) bars. We loved them! My daughter can be quite picky with oatmeal anything, but she ate this up! Thanks again. 🙂
Maryea says
March 4, 2013 at 7:37 pmYou’re very welcome. 🙂
Rian R says
March 6, 2013 at 1:08 pmWonderful recipe, thank you so much for sharing! I’m wondering if I could sneak in some shredded zucchini or possibly carrots because of their high water content! I think I’ll give it a whirl later today, thanks again!!
Maryea says
March 6, 2013 at 2:31 pmMost definitely! I think either would be great additions. 🙂
Heather says
March 8, 2013 at 4:23 pmThanks so much for a healthy, kid friendly recipe! I made these today with almond butter, a little bit of flax seed meal, and raisins. I also only did about 1/4 cup honey and a touch of agave. They turned out great, and smelled so good baking! My 4 year old loves them. thanks!
Maryea says
March 8, 2013 at 9:05 pmYou’re welcome! I’m sure they were great with almond butter. 🙂
Janna says
March 11, 2013 at 11:41 amI made these yesterday and they turned out fantastic! I used my food processor to shred the apple (unpeeled) and also threw in a small handful of shredded carrots since I was shredding them for another recipe. I used 1/2 the amount of honey and also added 1/2 of a very ripe banana. The texture of these bars is wonderful, and I really love the sweetness that the apple adds! I’d never made granola bars, and this will definitely be my go-to recipe 🙂 thanks!
Maryea says
March 11, 2013 at 3:43 pmYou’re welcome! I love the idea of using some mashed banana to sweeten it and less honey. Unfortunately my husband gets an upset stomach from bananas, so I purposely didn’t use them for this recipe. Love that you added carrots, too–never hurts to squeeze in some veggies! 🙂
Jane says
March 13, 2013 at 10:47 amThese sound great . I really need a carb count because my husband is diabetic. Thanks
Rachel says
March 16, 2013 at 5:23 pmThese are so yummy! I keep them on hand for my husband and toddler. I use part sunflower butter and part peanut butter. I’m not a fan of honey so I use a small amount, plus some applesauce. My husband loves when I add chocolate chips to these. I make them in double batches and they are always gone within days.
Emma says
April 4, 2013 at 12:58 pmI have just made these. Tried a little corner as they were cooling and yummy! I was expecting crunchy and thought I made them wrong…. But they are definately more like a nutrigrain bar ( which is no bad thing). I didn’t have honey so I used agave nectar and added raisins too. Was gonna add choc chips but I’m trying to be good! Luckily my friend lent me her “cup” measuring utensils! Live in the uk and we are all about the grams! Looking forward to breakfast tomorrow! Perfect for pre gym snack too! Thank you for the yummy recipe!
Maryea says
April 5, 2013 at 9:04 pmYou’re welcome! I’m glad you had the measuring cups with the US system. 🙂
Sarah says
April 11, 2013 at 11:32 pmHello! I just found this recipe on Pinterest, and I plan on making them tomorrow! If I substitute coconut oil for peanut butter, should I use the same amount or less? Thanks!
Maryea says
April 12, 2013 at 8:15 pmI would do the same amount.
Julie c says
April 22, 2013 at 10:29 pmMade these today …. Amazing! Will be featuring on my blog tmr. as a pininterest item that worked. I will link back to you. Thank you for the healthy snack! Can’t wait to read more of your blog!
Maryea says
April 29, 2013 at 8:03 pmGreat! Thank you.
ash says
May 4, 2013 at 1:31 pmSo i know its not as healthy so defeats good part but… we added 1/2 cup brown sugar
Erika Marie @ Simplemama says
June 10, 2013 at 4:20 pmHi Maryea! Thanks for sharing this recipe! I finally made them this weekend.
I really like the Apple/Peanut Butter flavor of the bars. I did add a cup more of apple and pb than the recipe called for, so then added a few more flakes (barley/rye again) to compensate for the added liquid. They still came out a bit crumbly though. However, this might be because I was too impatient and went ahead and got them out of the pan before they’d cooled all the way? I might add in some flour next time to see if it holds better.
I haven’t read through the other comments, anyone else have the crumbly issue?
ErikaMarie
vicky says
June 21, 2013 at 2:16 amDeeelicious!! Just made them as I am also on a no sugar no flour diet, also did half the honey. How long will these be good? Would anyone know the calorie count? Thank you!
jenny says
August 8, 2013 at 9:47 pmI’m wondering if these should be stored in the fridge or if they’re alright to stay out on the counter?
Thanks!
Maryea says
August 9, 2013 at 6:06 amThey can be stored either way. Thanks!

September 2, 2013 at 9:17 amWhen I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added”
checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks!
Maryea says
September 2, 2013 at 9:08 pmOh, my! I’m so sorry that is happening. I am not very tech savvy, but I’ll see what I can do. Is there no place at the bottom of the email that says, “Unsubscribe from comments”?
Nichole says
October 19, 2013 at 8:24 pmJust made this for my family for a before bed/watching a movie snack. Both my husband and daughter loved these (My daughter even yelled, “YUUUMMMMY!) and asked I make them again! How can I refuse when they are healthy AND yummy!
An addition to the people who said they didn’t firm up; I don’t have a 9×9 pan so I used a 9×11 pan. They were a little thinner than the ones in your picture. I also added about 5 minutes to the cook time.
Maryea says
October 25, 2013 at 6:37 amThank you for your tips!
Korilynn says
January 12, 2014 at 9:57 amHow do you recommend storing these? Can they be frozen?
Maryea says
January 13, 2014 at 8:58 pmI have not tried freezing them, but I imagine it would work fine. You can keep these on the counter, or they last a bit longer in the fridge.
Kayla says
March 23, 2014 at 8:17 pmI make these often and always add shredded coconut. Today I went crazy and also added dried cherries (1/8 of a cup). Made the bars taste totally different, and delicious ! I freeze them, and let them thaw to room temp before eating. :
Maryea says

March 25, 2014 at 9:08 amExcited to try these! I ran out of my honey, which is a tragedy in itself! I read in an earlier comment that mashed banana can be substituted? This is a new one to me. Is it a 1:1 ratio? Should it be super ripe? Thanks!
