Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pan

    Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

    In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, protein powder, chopped nuts, and salt.

    In a separate bowl, mix together nut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. If using, fold in mini chocolate chips.

    Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly into an even layer.

  6. 6

    Chill

    Refrigerate the bars for at least 1-2 hours, or until firm.
