Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups creamy no stir peanut butter
  • cup honey
  • ½ cup rolled oats old fashioned oats
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • Flaked sea salt for topping

Instructions

  • Stir together the creamy peanut butter and honey until combined.
  • Stir in the oats and vanilla protein powder until totally mixed. The batter should be thick but not too sticky that it sticks to your hands.
  • Transfer the protein bar batter to an 8 by 8 parchment paper lined baking dish. Flatten down the top and spread it evenly into the pan.
  • Melt the dark chocolate chips and semi sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second increments until smooth. Stir often to avoid burning.
  • Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the peanut butter layer and smooth it out using a rubber spatula.
  • Sprinkle flaked sea salt over the top of the melted chocolate layer. This is optional but highly recommended!
  • Chill the protein bars in the refrigerator until the chocolate is set, or 1-2 hours. The chocolate should be hardened completely before cutting.
  • Cut into 12 pieces and store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
