Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • ½ cup chopped almonds
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • ½ tsp fine sea salt
  • ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment.
  2. Stir together oats, protein powder, almonds, cranberries, chia seeds, and salt.
  3. Whisk peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour wet over dry and mix until fully coated. Press firmly into the pan.
  5. Bake 20–22 minutes until edges are golden. Cool 10 minutes in the pan.
  6. Lift out and slice into 12 bars while still warm. Cool completely and store.

Notes

Firm bars hold up in a lunch box, but if you like them extra dense, pop the whole pan in the fridge for an hour after baking before you slice.
