These healthy no bake chocolate coconut bars are loaded with wholesome ingredients like rolled oats, peanut butter and coconut. They’re sweet, delicious and perfect for snacking! Vegan and gluten-free.

Remember when I mentioned I had another no bake recipe to share when I posted my healthy no bake cookies post? Well . . . here it is!

There’s coconut involved!

This recipe is similar to the healthy no bake cookies — just with unsweetened coconut added for a hint of coconut flavor. I figure this is a good version for the folks that love coconut and chocolate.

They’re also great if you’re in a time crunch because you don’t have to worry about forming them into a cookie shape. Just press the batter into a pan, sprinkle with coconut, let it sit in the fridge a little while and they’re done. Easy peasy.

If you can’t tell, I had way too much fun taking photos of these bars… and this isn’t even half of the photos I took. I had to be selective.

The red and white kitchen twine just makes baked goods look so festive and cute. I couldn’t help but take a billion photos. Okay, more like 50.

I love the combo of peanut butter, chocolate and coconut so much and it works well in these bars. Oh gosh, writing that somehow made me think of my healthier magic cookie bars — now I want one of those. Anyhow, these bars are delicious, easy to whip up and quite amazing, in my opinion. I hope you love them as well!
