- Happy Meatless Monday friends! In my quest to eat more oatmeal, I’ve found that it makes great protein bars. Add in some peanut butter and even better! It’s like breakfast and dessert at the same time right?! Please join Tina and me to check out all of the great veggie creations this week.
- I’ve seen so many recipes using powdered peanut butter the last few months but I had never tried it myself until recently. I was given some samples of Peanut Butter and Co’s Mighty Nut to test out this week. I wasn’t exactly sure what to do with it at first however adding Mighty Nut to these oatmeal bars was fabulous. Might Nut is great for baking and adding to smoothies or sauces. Much of the fat and calories are removed in the process and you are left with tons of protein and flavor. Hope you enjoy! And don’t worry, I am going to share! I have a giveaway at the bottom for a jar of the flavor of your choice of Mighty Nut.
- These Peanut Butter Oatmeal bars are loaded with all the goodness of fall: cranberries, pumpkin seeds and oatmeal. There is no added sugar or artificial sweetener. You can’t beat that!

Never heard of powdered peanut butter ! Hmmm…. its hard to find peanut butter in France, thus I doubt the powdered version will make its way here. Too bad, I would love to try it !
Really? It’s hard to find peanut butter? Do people not eat it there?
yummo! these look amazing and i think my boys would lvoe them too! i’m all about family friendly and toddler healthy recipes…must try these soon!
Thanks! My son didn’t want to taste them and then had to admit he really liked them. Hope your kiddos do too!
I love my Mighty Nut! It is so versatile as well as being sooooo delicious
It really is versatile!
I’m a PB purist, so I’d pick plain and use it in my overnight oats. Those bars look yummy but so many calories packed into each bite too!
You could use regular pnb to make them as well. I prefer the plain flavor myself.
I really love Mighty Nut! It’s been a great addition to my pantry. The bars sounds delicious!
Thanks! I was excited to try it and loving how versatile it is
Holy molly! Those look delicious!!
I have contemplated powder PB but never really wrapped my mind around it but I can see now how it would be great for baking and adding to smoothies. Learn something new everyday!
Thanks! It was my first time using it as well and I am now a fan. It’s very versatile
Oh yum! Love that you used both the chocolate and original in there- these look fantastic!
Thanks! There were a great combo
These look so good! I’d love to try the chocolate one 🙂
Thanks! It’s pretty yummy 🙂
I’m not a big peanut butter eater but I do love PB cookies! I think this powder would make it so much easier to mix in than the actual stuff. But are the cookies creamy? I may have to try this stuff.
Everyone loves pnb cookies! You can add as much water to it as you wish so you can control how creamy it is. It’s very versatile
These look like a great grab and go breakfast or snack! I love the pumpkin and cranberry combo! Yum!
Thanks! They are a great pre or post workout snack for sure.
ahhh i’ve seen these everywhere! i gotta try that powder and this reicpe of course!
Yes you do! It’s great to cook with and for smoothies
Can I pick all??? I LOVE PB & co!!!!! Okay, if I HAD to pick, it would be vanilla! These sound So good friend!!
Thanks! It was my first time trying them this week and I loved them
These sound amazing! I’ve never tried powdered PB before but I’d love to. I think I’d go for the vanilla.
The vanilla will be great too!
Mmm these look fantastic, Deborah! I need to break out the Mighty Nut that I got for this week, too 🙂
Oh yeah you will love it! Can’t wait to see what you make
Flax chia 100% So when I eat the whole jar I feel healthy about it 🙂
LOl good plan!
I love the powdered peanut butter (though I use a different brand). It’s so easy and I love the lower fat/calories. Plus, it’s easy to take along in a ziploc bag so I can have my usual pre-run peanutbutter toast even when we’re on vacation 🙂
Well that’s a great idea!
I love Peanut Butter & Co. The original shop is in NYC and it’s SO good! I’m so sad I can’t have peanut butter anymore. I keep hoping I’ll grow out of the allergy one day. In the meantime, I need someone to create powdered almond butter!
I did not know they had a store! Too bad on the pnb -you should write to them and suggest the almond butter
Your protein bars look delicious! I made peanut butter banana bread with my Mighty Nut powder last night, and boy is it delicious!
Thanks! It’s really versatile isn’t it!
This sounds tasty! I have powdered peanut butter but mostly use it for throwing in smoothies. The chocolate flavor sounds like something I need in my life.
Thanks! It’s great for so many things hope you try it out
I love trying new flavors of powdered PB 🙂
chocolate 4 sure!
Me too! Thanks for entering & good luck
YUM YUM I could see eating one {or two} of these for breakfast! 🙂
These look great!! Love that there is no added sugar or artificial sweetener and that you added cranberries!
I had no idea powdered peanut butter even existed. You just opened up a whole new world for me!
Sign me up for the chocolate!! I have got to get my hands on these peanut butter protein bars! Amazing Deborah! Happy Monday!
I want to try the vanilla flavor!
You had me at peanut butter!! You already know I LOVE Mighty Nut… so I know these have to be good!
Vanilla sounds tasty!
YUm! Add ing peanut butter to oatmeal is definitely a great way to eat more oatmeal! Your bars look fantastic- I would like to try the chocolate flavor 🙂
I love peanut butter! I need to find some Mighty Nut to try! I bet they’d be great in smoothies too.
I’ve actually never tried powdered peanut butter. I’d love to try the regular or the chocolate.
PB and oatmeal! Yes please!
Chocolate sounds delicious!! The bars look awesome!
Thanks so much and the chocolate might nut is yummy!
These sound so tasty and would go perfect w my morning coffee. However I do think that there are alot of ingredients in there.
Yes there are a lot of ingredients but it literally took me under 10 min to throw it in as it is all together in one bowl.
Ooo what a great use for powdered peanut butter! I have some and really don’t mind it, but I love regular peanut butter more 😉 I just might have to give these a shot! Thanks for sharing!
Since you already have some hope you check it out! Thanks!
Oooh, yum! I would go for original, although I love all of PB&Co stuff. They actually used to sposor a women’s bicycle racing team up this way. Too bad they don’t any more. This recipe looks very tasty! Thanks for sharing. Probably easier to manage than regular PB, also.
I think in baking it may be easier to mix in -you’re right!
That looks great! I see a lot of uses for powdered PB – I’m glad to hear it tastes yummy!
It is! I just recently tried it and it’s great for cooking
I love powdered peanut butter! I actually like to use it as a flour substitute!! These look great!
Interesting idea!
Those protein bars look yummy! I’ve never used powdered PB…
I am a new fan of it!
Yum! They sound delicious!
They were hope you give them a try!
You had me at peanut butter! And the protein is a bonus.
I know anything with peanut butter is so good!
I love powdered peanut butter and these bars look delicious!! I would like to try the original version 🙂
It’s very versatile and great to cook with.
Yum. I haven’t tried this brand yet. I would like to try ALL of the flavors mentioned. 🙂 Yum!
All the flavors are good!
Yum! These look tasty. I’m an oatmeal gal too. I like using powdered peanut butter in my smoothies!
That’s a great way to use them too!
I’d love to try the original
It’s great good luck!
I’ve been thinking about making my own protein bars and these look so good.I really need to give this recipe a try. Never tried powdered peanut butter either.
Thanks I hope you do! The powdered pnb is great for cooking.
I am soooo trying this! I’d love to see what vanilla peanut flour tastes like.
I haven’t tried the vanilla yet but I bet you could use that too.
I’d like to try the chocolate.
Thanks for stopping by!
I’d try the vanilla flavor.
Thanks for entering and stopping by!
Yum! I live for peanut butter and chocolate, especially together!
It is a good combo!
Ive used this very versatile product! You cant go wrong with pb and chocolate together! Love the recipe and great review!
These are right up my ally…I need some powdered peanut butter in my life!
Thanks! They are really yummy 🙂
These look great. I love that there’s no added sweeteners. So many of these protein bars have a lot of added sugar, which kind of takes away their purpose. I can’t wait to try these!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! I started making my own for that exact reason!
You had me at Peanut Butter. I have never used the powdered peanut butter and I am a little hesitant to try. I like how real peanut butter makes things stick together.
It works great in recipes hope you check it out. You could use regular pnb as well. enjoy!
I’d Love to try the Flax chia or the chocolate one 🙂 And these look yummie!
Thanks so much!
I’d like to try the original PB flavor.
Thanks for stopping by!
These look so good and so easy! Will have to try!
Thanks so much! They were pretty tasty 🙂
these sounds so delicious! It will be hard not to eat the whole batch when I make this!
OH sure is! Hope you enjoy
