Just when you thought life couldn’t get any easier, along comes this recipe for dairy-free granola bars. With four simple ingredients, you will be quickly snacking on these gluten-free breakfast bars!
4 Ingredient – Dairy-Free Granola Bars
Don’t worry – making gluten and dairy-free granola bars aren’t hard! In fact, you can make them so quickly and easily that you really only need about 15 minutes of time.
I used to be like you…worried that I didn’t have the skillset to make nut-free granola bars…but that just isn’t the case. If you have someone in your home that has nut allergies, these are so simple to make!
My family has long loved granola bars. It is very difficult to find granola bars that meet our families dietary restrictions. (I have noticed that there are more and more gluten-free granola bars being sold at the store, but they are so expensive that I know I can make my own!)
For us, this means – No gluten, no dairy, and no nuts. Most granola bars on the market include one or all of these things, so I’ve started making my own so I can control what goes in them.
When you are dealing with nuts, dairy and gluten restrictions, things can get tricky. When you’re dealing with any food allergies things can get tricky. This vegan bars recipe is one that you and your family are certain to love.
Luckily, I’ve found some amazing products, with ingredient lists I can handle.
These tasty and easy-to-make gluten-free and dairy-free granola bars do not last long in my gluten-free home! Sometimes I double the batch so that I can keep them for more than a day or two.
One of these tasty ingredients is gluten-free oats. If you LOVE oats you need to try these No-Bake Oatmeal Cookies from Texan Erin!
Why Make Your Own Homemade Granola Bars?
Sometimes out of frustration for lack of a delicious product out there, we get creative and make our own. Sometimes that recipe we develop in our kitchen is even better than what we could buy in the store!
I love when that happens. Many of my recipes were born from a need to have a safe option for my family’s dietary restrictions. These gluten-free and dairy-free granola bars are just one of these recipes.
These homemade granola bars are gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and easily made vegan with a simple substitution. No-bake granola bars have never tasted so good!
What are Gluten-free Oats?
While oats themselves don’t contain gluten, many oats are processed in a way that introduces gluten into them. Buy oats that are certified gluten-free to be safe.
The kids LOVE to help mix the simple 4 ingredients together to make this recipe! This is a great recipe to introduce kids into the kitchen because there is no heat involved. Just dump and mix!
To make these dairy-free granola bars, I used Pascha Organic Chocolate with Rice Milk Baking Chips, honey, sunflower seed spread, and gluten-free oats.
That’s it! If you’d like to make the recipe vegan, you can sub brown rice syrup for the honey.
If you have someone in your household that is allergic to peanut butter or chopped almonds, it’s important to find a spread or something that you can substitute in.
Alternatively, if you are a dark chocolate lover, I would recommend the 55% Cacao – Organic Semi- Sweet Dark Chocolate Chips for these bars.
If you wanted to change the recipe up a bit you could always add in some mini chocolate chips as well. So cute but still pack a flavor punch!
I was lucky to be introduced to Pascha a few years back. If you remember me posting about their products, I always tell the story about how I met this company at a show in Chicago!
