These Nutella Oatmeal Bars are a layered bar made with oatmeal, white chocolate, and Nutella. Great for barbecues, camping, or an afternoon snack.
These Nutella Oatmeal Bars are a chocolate hazelnut twist on a classic peanut butter oatmeal bar. The combination of white chocolate, Nutella, and oats is fantastic – the perfect treat to share and devour.

I could eat Nutella on everything. I have been known to open the jar, grab a spoon, and go to town. My daughter Jojo has the same passion as I do; she craves Nutella.
My Favorite Kitchen Tools To Make This Recipe
From trusty pots and pans to handy gadgets, I’ve curated a list of products I use and love.
My entire family pretty much loves this gooey hazelnut spread. The only bad part about this spread is the evidence it leaves on your face after eating it. In our home, we get chocolate smiles, polka-dots of Nutella on our clothing, chins, and leftover smudges on our fingers from licking them.
One of my favorite treats to take up camping is my Oatmeal Peanut Butter Bars. This Nutella bar recipe is a twist on that recipe.

The first time I made these, the kids weren’t sure what to think. At first glance, they thought they were oatmeal peanut butter bars, and I have one little one of my own, Jersey, who swears to hate peanut butter, and one of my daycare kids, “Big Isaac,” who hates peanut butter. When I mentioned they were Nutella, there were literal shouts of joy. They all loved them! An instant hit!
Give them a try, and I know they’ll be a hit at your house, too. I love a twist on a classic, and these white chocolate Nutella bars are even better than the original.
How to make Nutella Oatmeal Bars
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9×13 metal pan.
Mix all the bar ingredients until well combined and press into pan. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Make topping while baking.

In a medium glass bowl melt chocolate and Nutella in the microwave for one minute. Remove and quickly stir, return to microwave and heat for another 30 seconds then stir again. Repeat until chocolate and Nutella are well combined and melted.

Spread topping on bars immediately after they get out of the oven. Chill in the refrigerator. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve.

Recipe Tips
If you’re a Nutella fan or know someone who is, these Nutella bars are a must-make. They make the best easy dessert bar for potlucks and BBQs or treat yourself to one (or three) for an afternoon snack.

I am not understanding one of the ingredients: 2/3 cup (1- tablespoons + 2 teaspoons) margarine or butter.
Does that mean 2/3 cup plus 1 T plus 2 t? Or is there a typo?
Happy to try these out.
