Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 cup Peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 0.5 cup Honey (or maple syrup)
- 0.333 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.333 cup Mini dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.333 cup Lightly toasted nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts), chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, and chopped nuts. Stir until evenly mixed.
In a microwave-safe bowl, gently warm the peanut butter and honey (or maple syrup) for 20-30 seconds until slightly softened. Mix well.
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the peanut butter and honey mixture, then stir to combine.
Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Using a spatula or your hands, mix until all the ingredients are fully coated and stick together.
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the pan and press it down firmly and evenly using the back of a spatula or your hands.
Chill the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the mixture to set.
Once firm, remove the mixture from the pan and cut it into 8 rectangular bars or smaller pieces, if desired.
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer shelf life.
