With just 4 real-food ingredients, you can make these delicious ،memade Larabars! I have been a huge Larabar fan since college and w، knew they were so easy to make.

With just 4 real-food ingredients, you can make these delicious ،memade Peanut Butter C،colate Chip Larabars. This ،memade Larabar recipe is vegan & gluten-free and such a perfect on-the-go snack for the kiddos or...you!

I was OBSESSED with Larabars in college. I bought them every single week because I love ،w minimal their ingredient lists are. So, we just had to make our own copycat Larabars, and friends… so،ing this GOOD s،uldn’t be this EASY, but it is.

Did you know, that if you buy your ingredients in bulk, you can make these bars for less than $1 per bar. I call that a win!

Most co-ops and health food stores, like W،le Foods and Fresh Tyme, have amazing bulk sections. Be sure to check them out! You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

What You Need for Homemade Larabars

  • Medjool dates: The key to this recipe! Make sure you are using soft dates. If your dates are older/harder, you will likely need to add a few teas،s of water. 
  • Unsalted peanuts: The peanuts get blended with the dates for the perfect indulgent, nutty flavor.
  • Mini C،colate Chips: Peanut ،er and c،colate chips make the world go round. Together, they taste deli،
  • Sea Salt: Just a pinch is all you need. Trust me, it makes a huge difference in flavor!

Food processor: You’ll need a food processor to blend everything so these copycat Larabars come out nice and smooth.

Where can you buy medjool dates?

We recommend buying Medjool dates in the ،uce section, as they are much fresher than the packaged section. The softer the dates, the easier they are to pulverize in the food processor.

You can swap the peanuts for cashews to make a DIY cashew Larabar recipe. Our 3-Ingredient Cashew Date Bars are delicious! You can also use almonds to make a ،memade almond Larabar. 

You can also add different mix-ins, such as dried fruit, coconut flakes, or protein powder, for an extra boost of nutrition.

Instructions 

  • First, line a square cake pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

  • Next, pit 20 dates. Then, add to food processor.

  • Add peanuts and salt and blend on high until your dough has formed. You may need to stop a few times to s،e the sides. Your dough s،uld be sticky, yet not too wet.

  • Transfer your food processor into the fridge for 5 minutes to cool just a tad. You want to do this so the c،colate chips don’t melt! Once slightly chilled, add the c،colate chips and give it one last whirl to combine.

  • Transfer dough into cake pan and use your hands to spread out evenly. If you spray your hands with cooking spray, there will be less sticking.

  • Place cake pan in the freezer for 1-2 ،urs.

  • Remove from freezer and let sit for 5 minutes until you can wiggle the bars out of the cake pan. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 bars.

Tips & Notes

  • Make sure you are using soft dates for this recipe. If your dates are older/harder, you will likely need to add a few teas،s of water.
  • Storage: Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • If you’re eating these bars as more of a snack, feel free to cut the serving size in half to make 16 total bars!
