Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
1/2 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, protein powder, and salt.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat peanut butter and honey together for 20-30 seconds until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Add milk a tablespoon at a time, just enough to bring the mixture together.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan, using the back of a spatula to smooth the top.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Cut into 12 bars and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
