the best ever gluten free and vegan snickers bars

Myself and Izabela from The Cake Mama decided to collaborate and recreate the Snickers Bars two different ways. I made my version on the healthier side and kept it vegan and gluten free. Izabela also made hers vegan, but it is a much more indulgent version!

I love a good no-bake recipe! Why are these a new favourite of mine? Because it combines two of my all time favourite things, chocolate and caramel! Then you’ve also got a delicious nougat layer, and don’t of peanuts mixed in!

This recipe is very simple to make. The only tedious part is waiting for the layers to set.

How To Make The Cookie Base

Start by making oat flour with your gluten free oats. Put the oats in a high powered blender and blend on high until flour forms. Transfer the flour to a medium size bowl and add coconut flakes, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and almond milk. Let mixture firm up for 3 minutes.

Grease and line a bread loaf pan with parchment paper, and press the cookie base evenly and refrigerate.

How To Make the Date Caramel Layer

Place the dates in hot water for one hour to soak and soften for the date caramel layer. Once the dates are soft, add them to a food processor. Blend them up with peanut butter, maple syrup and salt until smooth. 

This is the second layer to the Snickers Bars. Add the caramel evenly over the cookie base and freeze for 3 hours minimum.

How To Make The Chocolate Layer

In a microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate and coconut oil.

Once the bars have set in the freezer, slice into 8 bars. Coat each bar with melted chocolate, I like using a fork for this step.
