When did this even happen? Kids are already heading back to school and I&#8217;m still wondering how it&#8217;s almost September. But that means fall is just around the corner and let me tell you, it&#8217;s one of my favorite baking seasons!<\/p>\n<p>But, it&#8217;s still summer and I&#8217;m living up the last few weeks of it with these bars. I&#8217;ve made two more batches of these this past week because they are that good.&nbsp;I wanted these bars to be on the healthier side, so I used&nbsp;oats and white whole wheat flour. When it comes to baking a little healthier, I love to use white whole wheat flour and it works so perfectly in these bars.<\/p>\n<p>Annddd.. there&#8217;s zero butter in these bars too, just peanut butter and a little coconut oil. I also threw in some chocolate chips because chocolate + peanut butter&nbsp;is&nbsp;always a winning combination.<\/p>\n<p>These oatmeal breakfast bars are super&nbsp;soft, thick, and chewy and almost like eating a peanut butter cookie. A peanut butter cookie in bar form that&#8217;s a little healthier is always welcome in my home.&nbsp;Plus, you only need one bowl to make these. The less dirty dishes the better!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2633 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Healthy-Peanut-Butter-Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Bars-2.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A stack of two oatmeal bars on a square of parchment paper.

If you need to do this quickly, just place your egg in a cup of warm water for about 5 minutes before adding it to the recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coconut oil: <\/strong>I prefer to use melted coconut oil in&nbsp;these bars, but you can use vegetable or canola oil.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:&nbsp;<\/strong>Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oats:&nbsp;<\/strong>You&#8217;ll need old-fashioned (rolled) oats for this oatmeal snack. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour:&nbsp;<\/strong>I&#8217;ve only made this recipe with white whole wheat flour, but I imagine all-purpose flour would also work.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:&nbsp;<\/strong>Enhances the peanut butter-chocolate flavor.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Baking soda:&nbsp;<\/strong>Prevents the bars from being too dense.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chocolate chips:&nbsp;<\/strong>Use semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips, whichever you prefer!&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Make Oatmeal Bars&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>To make these easy oatmeal bars, simply mix together the wet ingredients before adding in the dry. Fold in the chocolate chips last.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Turn the batter into a greased 8&#215;8-inch baking dish, then bake until the top is set and golden brown.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2632 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Healthy-Peanut-Butter-Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Bars.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Four oatmeal breakfast bars next to a spoonful of peanut butter and a handful of chocolate chips. \" width=\"680\" height=\"1020\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Healthy-Peanut-Butter-Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Bars.jpg?w=680&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Healthy-Peanut-Butter-Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Bars.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Healthy-Peanut-Butter-Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Bars.jpg?resize=300%2C450&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>How to Store These Bars&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>Leftover bars can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

from 1\/4 cup to 2 tablespoons.<\/li>\n<li>The coconut oil may be replaced with 2 tablespoons of canola or vegetable oil.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re welcome to omit the chocolate chips entirely or
