Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
• 1 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
• 0.5 cup honey
• 0.25 cup milk (any type)
• 0.33 cup dark chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup chopped nuts (optional)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and protein powder. If using chopped nuts or chia seeds, stir them in as well.

Step 2

Add the peanut butter and honey to the dry ingredients. Mix until the ingredients start to come together.

Step 3

Gradually add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing well to form a dough-like consistency. The mixture should be sticky but firm enough to hold its shape.

Step 4

Line a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with parchment paper.

Step 5

Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared dish using a spatula or your hands.

Step 6

Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips on top and press them lightly into the surface.

Step 7

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up the bars.

Step 8

Once set, lift the mixture out of the dish using the parchment paper and slice into 12 bars.

Step 9

Store the protein bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
