Healthy Schotcheroos




The best Healthy Scotcheroos ever! These healthy scotcheroos are made with no added sugar, unsalted peanut butter, and coconut oil. This scotcheroos recipe has no white sugar or corn syrup, win win! They are ready in no time and a great healthy spin on a classic schotcheroo bar. Make it with me!




Who doesn't love a good scotcheroo? I know I do! I knew I wanted to try and make this recipe a little lighter, and a little more macro friendly. I used Brown Rice Cereal that I found at Harmons. I also used all natural peanut butter, and honey to sweeten the bars! Delicious!



The bars in the pictures are cut larger to show texture! For the macros to be on with this recipe, cut the scotcheroo bars into 20, smaller squares.
