    There isn’t any need for flour in gluten-free baking when you have peanut butter (or any nut butter) on hand! It can mimic and even outdo the best of gluten-free flours in terms of both texture and taste.

    Tips for Making Flourless Peanut Butter Bars:

    • For best results, use peanut butter with minimal ingredients. One made with just peanuts & salt is ideal.
    • In need of a peanut-free version? Almond butter, cashew butter, pecan butter, pumpkin seed butter, and sunflower seed butter are all excellent choices for this recipe.
    • I recommend using a very non-stick pan or lining one with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
    • Let the bars cool completely after baking for the best results. They will firm up significantly as they cool.
    • You can store these bars in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. And the freezer for up to 3 months.
    • Are you out of cinnamon? These bars taste great with any warming spices you might like to add: ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, and cloves. And they are simply delicious without any spices added, too!
    • Looking for a more decadent option? Mix in some dairy-free chocolate chips before baking.
    • You can swap the maple syrup for raw honey if you prefer.
    • You can make a sugar-free version by using a syrup such as this one.

      These look amazing! Would it still work if I substitute the apple cider vinegar with lemon juice?

        Oops! I can't believe I left that out. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. 🙂 I use a 9 x 9, but 8 x 8 would work just fine, too! I hope you love them.
