Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter or sunflower seed butter (or any nut/seed butter you love)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons protein powder (I used unflavored collagen) – may omit
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons puffed rice cereal (like Rice Krispies)
  • Salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized bowl mix together the nut/seed butter, maple syrup, and protein powder, if using.
  2. Add in the rolled oats and puffed rice cereal, mixing until thoroughly combined.
  3. Press the mixture into a lined loaf pan.
  4. Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
  5. Pour the melted chocolate on top of the oat mixture. Refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, at least 30 minutes (or freeze for 15 minutes).
  6. Cut into squares and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
