Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Servings 15 Bars

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup Chocolate Peanut Butter Powder or Protein Powder I used the PB2 brand of peanut butter powder. You can use a protein powder if you'd like, but I prefer the peanut butter powder just because they don't add any artificial sweeteners.
  • 1/2 Cup Honey
  • 1 Cup all natural peanut butter, smooth
  • 1 1/2 Cups Old Fashioned Oats, ground up You can use a food processor or food blender to grind up your oats.

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a 9x9 non stick pan. Line with wax paper or non stick spray. I didn't spray my pan or use wax paper, and my bars came out with a few taps on the bottom of my pan. It's a risk you take!
  • Grind your oats in a food blender or processor for about 1 minute.
  • In a medium microwave safe bowl, add your peanut butter and honey. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir until well combined.
  • Microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Stir until well combined.
  • Add in ground up oats, and peanut butter powder. Stir until well combined. Things will start to get sticky, tacky and thick.
  • Once everything is combined well, dump in your 9x9 pan. Press down into pan evenly. Chill for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, take out bars. Turn them onto a cutting board. Cut bars into squares. Store left overs in tightly sealed container with wax paper separating each. Store in fridge.
  • Enjoy!
