    Description

    These easy S'mores Bars are made with oats, graham crackers, and cashew butter for a healthier spin on the classic! With a rich chocolate layer and gooey marshmallows, kids and adults of all ages will adore them. Vegan and gluten-free option.


    Ingredients

    Scale

    For the bars:

    • 2 cups Bob's Red Mill old-fashioned oats (certified gluten-free if necessary)
    • 4 full sheets of graham crackers (certified gluten-free if necessary)
    • ¼ tsp salt
    • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
    • ½ cup cashew butter (can sub almond butter)
    • ½ cup almond milk

    For the chocolate topping:

    • ¾ cup chocolate chips (dairy-free if necessary)
    • 1 ½ tbsp coconut oil
    • 1 tbsp cashew butter

    For the marshmallow topping:

    • 10-12 vegan marshmallows, sliced into fourths, or mini marshmallows to cover (vegan if necessary)

    Instructions

    1. Line an 8x8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper going both ways.
    2. Place oats and graham crackers in a food processor or blender (I used my Nutribullet). Process until a flour-like consistency is achieved. Dump into a large bowl and add salt, stirring to combine.
    3. Add maple syrup, cashew butter, and almond milk. Stir until you have a ball of "dough." Using wet hands, press evenly into prepared baking dish.
    4. Make chocolate coating by placing chocolate chips, coconut oil, and cashew butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals for about a minute, or until melted, stirring each time. Pour chocolate over bars and use a spatula to spread evenly. Freeze for an hour.
    5. Once the chocolate has set, gently remove the bars from the baking dish and transfer to a baking sheet, removing parchment paper. Top with halved marshmallows. Broil for about 45 seconds to a minute or until marshmallows are browned. Watch closely to avoid burning.
    6. Remove from oven and carefully slice into 9-12 bars. If you want the chocolate to firm up again, feel free to re-freeze until set. Store covered on the counter for up to 24 hours or refrigerate for longer.

      These are really yummy and also easy to make. They were the perfect snack for my boys after school. We used peanut butter because that's what we had.

      I really wanted to like these, but they just didn't work out well for me. I was skeptical from the beginning about mixing together oats and graham cracker crumbs with almond milk - which is essentially water - and was not surprised when this combination yielded a mushy, wet crust instead of the supple dough I had hoped it would create. Additionally, the crust lacked flavor - the amount of graham crackers called for in comparison to the amount of oats is just not enough to impart any significant graham flavor, and the absence of any cinnamon or vanilla didn't help. If I were to attempt this again, I would only use coconut oil, nut butter, or even dates as a binder for the crust, and maybe even bake this layer for a short time to evaporate any unwanted moisture.

        Sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy them. From your comment it sounded as if you only mixed the dry ingredients with almond milk, but the recipe calls for just as much cashew butter and also maple syrup. It’s supposed to be a moist, doughy consistency that’s a play on one of my most popular recipes, “cookie dough protein bars.” Most of the flavor comes from the chocolate and marshmallows.
