Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Almond butter
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.75 cup Vanilla protein powder
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, ground flaxseed, and salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, gently warm the almond butter and honey until they are easy to mix together. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 3
Pour the almond butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly using a spatula or your hands until the mixture is fully combined and holds together.
Step 4
If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips for a touch of sweetness.
Step 5
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the dish, using your hands or the back of a spatula to pack it tightly.
Step 6
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Step 7
Once set, remove the mixture from the baking dish using the parchment paper as handles. Slice into 10 equal-sized bars.
Step 8
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze them for up to 3 months for a grab-and-go snack.
