Peanut Butter Jam Bars
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, peanut butter recipes are some of my favorites.
I’ve made it no secret that I have an extremely picky eater in my house. One thing that he will eat is the classic combination of PB&J, so I put together these peanut butter jam bars.
A kid gets sick of PB&J sandwiches and toast, so I’ve been having to get creative. We’ve done peanut butter jam shakes, PB&J sushi and peanut butter and jelly quesadillas.
Note to self: write up the recipe to all of these.Â
The peanut butter jam bars are simple. They’re no bake and they only have three ingredients, perfect for us busy parents. They’re tasty and a little bit messy (which the kids love).
Recipe note: the bars themselves are soft and can be a bit messy. If you’re looking for a more solid bar – stick them in the freezer instead of the fridge.
Here’s a quick video I made to help you out with the steps. It’s seriously THAT easy!

Which container would one square go into?
If I remember correct, it’s a yellow.
I know it says makes 16 bars, but does anyone know what the serving size would be?!?
Hey Teri, if I remember correctly it would be 1 🙂
What sauce do you put on top of them in th epicture.
Oh I just melted some nut butter to pour over, it was simply for the photos 🙂
