Ingredients

• 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 0.5 cup almonds, roughly chopped
• 0.5 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
• 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup natural peanut butter
• 0.5 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, chopped almonds, chopped walnuts, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and protein powder. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a small microwave-safe bowl, add the peanut butter and honey. Microwave for 30-45 seconds, or until softened and easy to stir. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the peanut butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Using a spatula, stir until everything is fully coated and well combined.

Step 4

Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang to easily lift the bars out later. Transfer the granola mixture to the dish, pressing it down firmly and evenly with the back of a spoon or a spatula.

Step 5

Sprinkle the top with dark chocolate chips and a pinch of sea salt. Press the chocolate chips gently into the mixture to help them stick.

Step 6

Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm and fully set.

Step 7

Once set, lift the granola mixture out of the baking dish using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to slice it into 12 bars.

Step 8

Store the granola nut protein bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for up to three months for longer storage.
