Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Crisped rice cereal
- 1 cup Smooth peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 0.5 cup Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, crisped rice cereal, ground flaxseed, and salt. Stir well until all the dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over low heat, add the peanut butter and honey. Stir frequently until the mixture is warm, smooth, and fully combined. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 3
Pour the warm peanut butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or your hands, mix the ingredients until everything is evenly coated and holds together.
Step 4
Let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes before gently folding in the mini chocolate chips. This will prevent the chocolate from melting completely.
Step 5
Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the pan and press it firmly into an even layer using the back of a spoon or your hands.
Step 6
Refrigerate the pan for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Step 7
Once set, remove the mixture from the pan by lifting the edges of the parchment paper. Cut it into 10 bars with a sharp knife.
Step 8
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy as a convenient and delicious snack!
