Ingredients

  • ¼ cup plant-based vanilla protein powder I used Nuzest
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt omit if peanut butter has salt
  • ½ cup creamy natural peanut butter or almond butter
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 Tablespoon melted coconut oil plus more if needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2-4 Tablespoons chocolate chips plus more for topping

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Combine protein powder, oat flour and salt. Add in peanut butter, honey, vanilla and coconut oil. The dough will be quite thick. I suggest combining the dough with your hands. If it’s still too dry add more melted coconut oil or water, 1 teaspoon at a time.
  3. Mix in chocolate chips with hand or spoon.
  4. Press dough into a lined loaf pan and add more chocolate chips on top. Press the chips in with your hands.
  5. Let bars chill in fridge for at least one hour before cutting.
  6. Remove bars from the fridge, cut into 6 equal-sized bars and enjoy. Bars will last about one week in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.

Notes

  • sunflower seed butter.
  • Peanut butter: any natural, drippy nut butter should work. You can try almond butter, cashew butter or sunflower seed butter.
