  • ⅓ cup peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 ⅔ cups old-fashioned oats
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsalted peanuts
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips (Optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
  • Stir peanut butter and melted butter together in a bowl until smooth. Add brown sugar, honey, corn syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt; stir. Mix applesauce into peanut butter mixture.
  • Combine oats and flour in a bowl; toss to coat oats with flour. Stir peanuts and raisins into oat mixture. Pour peanut butter mixture over the oat mixture; stir to coat completely. Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top and continue baking until chocolate melts and edges begin to brown, about 5 minutes more. Spread melted chocolate chips with the back of a spoon or a rubber spatula to coat the top. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
