Description
These decadent vegan Snickers bars are a healthier, homemade twist on the classic candy bar, made with oat flour nougat, creamy date caramel, crunchy roasted peanuts, and rich dairy-free chocolate. Entirely plant-based and refined sugar-free, they’re indulgent yet nourishing and freezer-friendly for make-ahead treats.
Ingredients
1 cup oat flour
1/4 cup natural peanut butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 cup pitted Medjool dates
1/4 cup coconut cream
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1/3 cup roasted peanuts
1 1/2 cups dairy-free chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix oat flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until a dough forms.
- Press the nougat mixture evenly into the bottom of the lined pan.
- In a food processor, blend dates, coconut cream, peanut butter, vanilla, and salt until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the caramel over the nougat layer.
- Sprinkle roasted peanuts on top and gently press them in.
- Freeze the pan for 1–2 hours until firm.
- Lift the set mixture out of the pan and slice into bars.
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth.
- Dip each bar into the chocolate to fully coat.
- Place coated bars on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate or freeze until the chocolate sets.
Notes
Use almond or cashew butter instead of peanut butter for a different flavor.
For a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter and pumpkin seeds.
Add crushed rice cakes or chopped nuts to the chocolate for extra crunch.
Use 70% dark chocolate for a richer taste.
Let frozen bars sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving.
